Steve & Grant are joined once again by Bas Scheffers from Adelaide to discuss a few items, including:
- A follow up to the ADSB discussion we had with Bill Hamilton back in episode 48
- A discussion of the iPhone/iPad application Bas & a partner have been developing called OzRunways covering what it does & how it came to be
- The revelation that Grant actually doesn’t like the TV show “Ice Pilots” (oh, the shame! :)
- Parafield airshow is changing dates to March 25th, 2012 due to weather concerns and to help ensure more Australian Defence Force assets will be available
- Avalon is coming up soon
- Bas is going to Oshkosh and as we may not be able to make it, he may have to be the PCDU correspondent for us (not sure how we’ll get him a more Australian accent though!)
- Hassling Bas to provide a bio for the PCDU “About Us” page
We also have another great chat with our man “Across the Ditch,” Dan Morris from New Zealand, including:
As if all this wasn’t enough, we also have a chat with James Williams from the Podcaster’s Emporium about his recent Business Class trip with Emirates across the ditch to New Zealand & back.
Finally, we wrap up the show with some Listener Mail & Shout Outs, including:
- Bill Morelli from the USA who flies a Zenith Zodiac (nice plane!)
- Paul Bridges who supplied the photo of the Qantas DC3 that graces this episode’s notes
- Colin Sweetman from the UK who has started getting back into his flying and wants to do aerobatics (YES!!!! says Grant :) and also offered to be our tour guide to a number of aviation museums if we can get there (we’ll hold you to that, Colin! :)
- And finally, a big shout out to the people who decided to take part in the “$50 for Episode 50” concept – thanks folks!
