SADLER VAMPIRE SV-2

Bendigo Flying Club has some very interesting aircraft and pilots.

It's interesting the things that you find in sheds, ask Wayne about the story behind this aircraft and it's ultimate arrival in Bendigo.

This is what we all wish we were flying

Harry, looks happy with the turbine twister. Not so sure about those wire cutters a sure sign that Harry flies a lot lower than the fixed wing brigade ;-)

Steve, checking the fuel capacity of the RV-7 the ladder is there to hold the aeroplane level not for loading small passengers.

Pauline & Peter enjoying the admiring looks and comments about their new Savannah.

Tony enjoying some time with the twin engine toy, note Jan's influence  with the neat curtains.  Jan likes to fly in comfort and safety Tony gets to point it in the right direction.

Tim Pryce with the family Cessna 150 which is for sale in the For Sale section of the web site. Tim organises the club Comp/Family day activity each month. Also fly's one of those things with a rotor instead of wings.

George's Burkut - this is what it will look like when it's finished .....pretty flash.

That is if we can wake him up!( what did you call it George) arr! yes that's it  from his deep thinking mode.

George and his baby, this is the favourite ask him about the rest of the collection.
