Default real life use of general aviation for this newsgroup

We also went with Goanna, was sad to see them go out of business. Who is
doing it now? I was surprised that Mal didn't have any kind of checkout for
us, we just walked out on the grass and he said "OK, you have that airplane,
you have this one, etc.", we started up and flew, for sixteen days.

When I flew there in 2003, I don't think there was any "ouside controlled
airspace" license. My Aussie license didn't say anything like that, and we
flew into controlled airspace. I know there have been major changes since
then, and I haven't tracked them.

We did New Zealand in 2006, it was even better.

As I recall, one of our own flying couples (don't remember who, now) went
on one of those things. They loved it, I remember.



Ron & Margie Natalie, two years ago

The company we went with went out of business due partially to the new
regulations, but there is another one running the tours now. The new regs
have shaken out so it is possible, but plan well in advance (like a year).
We hope to go again sometime! It was GREAT.
