Peter Smith 1 Report post Posted June 26, 2006 As many of you know, Perth will be proudly hosting the Red Bull Air Race, which will kick off on Nov 19. This is a perfect opportunity for all aviation buffs from far and wide to come and experience this beautiful city which I and Sandeep (50/50) call home, whilst Extra 300's are buzzing overhead, not to mention all the Ad Hoc traffic expected! I look forward to seeing some of you here! I suppose if there was a group interested, we could hire an 8 seater or something for your visit, have a big spotting session or something...

Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted June 30, 2006 Anyone going to make the trip? Cannot....why it was not planned 4-5 weeks later, lah ??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peter Smith 1 Report post Posted June 30, 2006 Pieter, here's my solution. Come to PER twice next year...its on again in 07 and 08... Sandeep, CX 330...hmm, don't think the owners of buildings nearby will be too happy, they already whinge enough about the Langley Park Fly-In's, damages my ass! Oh I reckon we may see the odd PC-9 and 79sqn Hawk during the course of the event. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
