Bunbury Harbour



Arrived at Bunbury and met up with a fellow homebuilder Alex Karatamoglou, Alex let me into his hanger area at Bunbury Airport to make this video of the helicopter set up



Travelling further north put me in Mandurah

Thanks to the Wyllie family for putting me up next to their house at Silver sands so I could get my rig set up for the next leg of my journey

 Mandurah Crab fest was on while staying with the Wyllie's , great few days on the foreshore of Mandurah
The drone doing the video footage of the wake boarding

My headsets need a firmware update so I flew the chopper to York to attend to the issue. After they had a look at my set up we found an earthing issue that was causing static. A fix on site and ready to go

The Serpentine Aero Club were welcoming and allowed me to use the airstrip at Serpentine to operate from.
A quick pic in front of the Ericson Skycrane was to good to resist

made my baby look like a real baby, even the umbilical core is attached

Arrived at the Cullens House at Forrest Dale to stay for a few days. Rob who was kind enough to give me his elastromeric bearings when mine failed is building the same kit helicopter as mine








Until Rob buggered his arm he was charging along with the build, keep up the good work Rob..

Practical jokers Kerry and Wendy decided to give me a going away present !! A truck wrapped in streamers.. Good on you girls











West TV Perth organised a interview for under current



Time to head north out of Perth, a drop in to say high to Paul Kalajzich at his new home at Iluka

Margaret River

Arriving at Margaret River I drove to a few of the local wineries to see who would give me permission to fly low over their wineries. Geoff from Watershed Wineries was very happy to have me visit his winery,offering me to camp up in the winery. Staying the first night made me realise these wineries work all night. Time to get the Cannon HD out and make a movie. The staff at Watershed were fantastic showing me all the operations

Here is the video I gave to Geoff to use as he pleases
