Natfly 2004
Review by Angela Smith
September 2004 edition of Pacific Flyer
"Video Review Natfly
2004"
This video runs for
approximately one and a half hours covering interviews with pilots, importers
and designers of various aircraft, static displays and take-off and
landings.
Included in this years
coverage are:
Neil Lawry, Mustang 11
owner. Neil chats about the aircraft and the modifications he has made to
improve it. The cost of purchasing a kit - this is a very basic aircraft and
probably one of the least expensive kits around at the moment.
Dave King - who has
been patiently building the Hummel over several years - now nearly
complete.
Savannah reps talk
about their aircraft and the HKS engine.
Ole Jensen from Boss
products demonstrates his inflight adjustable propeller - with a 1000 hour
TBO.
Tom Wickers chats about
his pride and joy - the Cobra.
Phil Ainsworth from
Jabiru covers the range of aircraft and engines. He talks about how pleased the
team at Jabiru are with the new J160, which was on display at
Narromine.
The above are just to
name a few.
A variety of other
owners and builders were also interviewed, which of course included the builder
of the "Best Overall Aircraft" at Natfly - the Sonex built from scratch by Lynn
Jarvis. Many of the pilots talk about their aircraft's performance and features.
So if you weren't able to make Natfly this year then a copy of this video or DVD
is a good substitute.
