Mike C. Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Amazingly robust little aircraft. When I was a kid, WLAC had four at White Waltham (1970s) G.ATVL, G.AWBS, G.AVSC G.VLF (I think). They were 1960s PA28s, but everytime I've been into WW since, they still seem to be in regular use. They must have clocked up huge hours over 40 years. When did they fit the quadrant throttle on the PA 28? Always thought it was nicer than the push/pull one.

TopQ1967 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 In the past I flew gliders. Everything I did afterwards was to get the same trill. Race cars on a track, off- piste skiing, kite- surfing, buy a Seven..... Notting came even close to the same trill! So please don’t tamper me to sell my Seven and buy your plain instead! How much for lessons in the UK? Quirin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nodrog Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Mike I'm a member of WLAC - and I think G-AVSC is still on fleet. I must admit I tend to fly the newer planes, particularly a fairly new Archer which they now have 😬 Quirin Training rates, at least in the S-E and for Pipers & Cessnas - you're now looking at £160 plus p.h. all-in.

Red SLR Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Gary, he said try QDM Aviation at Caernarfon. They operate a couple of PA140 and might be interested. LeMans 2006 photos here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WILL FLY Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Whats wrong with Blackbushe Nodrog, Waltham is a bit of a trek from Hook ☹️ We'll have to meet up some time (maybe the Phoenix in Hartley Wintney at the L7 Club meet), I fly G-DEVS from the Bushe. 140 cherokees are a bit like 1.4 K series, a bit short on guts, DEVS is a '62 180 which climbs 2 up with full fuel at 1000+ fpm, but like having a 1.8 supersport Roy. See willfly.net for more info. If you don't spin you ain't trying Happiness is knowing you have just a tad too much power DVA 1.8K R345 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nodrog Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Roy I did fly from the Bushe for many years - until European Flyers went bust. I've always flown Club planes, so joined WLAC after EF got shut down. Yes, I do go to the Phoenix very occasionally - see you there sometime.

WILL FLY Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Gordon If you drop me your details via blatmail I'll give you mine, you could come up in DEVS, I've been watching the Red Bull races and have picked up some tips 😬 I bumped into one of El Fayed's chopper pilots the other night, flies an S76, El Fayed has his own hangar at Stanstead Roy. (chief scarer of airline pilots) See willfly.net for more info.
