The new owner of our GP One rang me yesterday from Australia to say that the CASA had certified the aircraft. and they were ready to fly the GP One. If all went well, they would make the 600km flight north to his home farm near Rockhampton.
It was really good today to get another phone call from him to report that they'd successfully made the 3 hour flight to Cawarral Farm. He loved flying the GP One and was happy to have it home. I'm looking forward to seeing some photos of the GP One in its new environment.
Not one to be idle while waiting for the GP One, he has widened and lengthened the original 800m runway, added a cross-wind runway and built another hangar. There are 6 aircraft based at the farm, so hopefully lots of people will see and fly the GP One in the future.
