The weather here in Texas has been bad for about a week now. Rain, low clouds with chances of snow. Today the sun is finally coming out and it will be warm! Not sure if the pilot stayed in town. If and when I hear something I will post or ask “270” to post.
Blue Skies,
Dan

You meant to say ‘my’ photo I am sure 😉

Dave, yes, you’re quite right 😮 ! Actually, I assumed you weren’t a member of the forum, so I guess I was thinking “the photo to which Mike posted a link”!
Nice to see a fellow kiwi on the forum; you must have been further along the runway than me, to have gotten that photo of it in the air.

Interesting to me that the new Oscar has a three bladed prop, I guess that’s a later model than the Wanaka Oscar.

Awesome – I love those little Oscars. Lets keep our fingers crossed she has a safe run in.
Thursday the 27th the FAA will be out to sign off the Oscar.. We will then taxi around before the weather gets bad …

Don’t start that we don’t want this locked
However on this subject. What is to stop someone starting a new thread on exactly the same subject when the first is locked anyway???

Hi all
Beautiful – Last time one was running was at Wanaka when the original one that is now in the Allen collection “accidentially “got airborne on the runway there.
I have heard this before, but never seen a photo of the said event… Has anyone got one ??
Thanks

I suppose they had the spares from the others in the hanger but as has been said to get this back together in such a short time is just fantastic. Come on Australian collectors – please buy one !!!!

Is the orscar already repaired after it’s taxi accident or is this an older pic?
Still a nice plane isn’t it. 🙂
