I’ve heard a few people in aviation pronounce Quirindi wrong, especially people based out of Sydney. It’s Quirin-die just for future reference Kinda like its close neighbour Murrurundi. Easy mistake I guess when you have a suburb in Sydney called Yarrumundi. 😂 But yeah fun fact for you. Nice video, I hear you on centre flying that thing around quite regularly.
If I remember lost comms procedures (if you had of had both radios die), squawk 7600, listen on the nav aids if able, since you're VMC land at a appropriate airport (which is probably shellharbour anyway) and transmit anyway with "transmit blind". I need to revise all this stuff before my instrument flight test in a couple weeks.
great video Steve, thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great Video Steve, my favourite part was talking about purpose on descent while popping the ears with the valsalva maneuver!!
Haha yes! I’m getting better at multitasking!
Just stumbled across your channel Steve -great stuff! Subbed.
Thanks!

Great! Thanks for the tip. I’ll get it right next time.
Neat video Steve. Did I spot an Icom IC-706 on the far right of the panel there? I assume you're using that for HF comms.
Yes, it has HF.. although I admit I’ve never had to use it
Watching u on flight radar24....
It’s such a great App!

That’s it. Fortunately I still had COM2 working fine… and then COM1 came good again. Strange!
What iPad mount do you have mate
I was using the mygoflight suction mount. Works very well.
