Great Screens Blake , wouldnt like to see a A4 use the grass , those thin tyre's would cut a trench and fall a little like those four legged walky things outta Star Wars biggrin.gif

We really need a better sound package for that Skyhawk .. I used the Vixen sound set for a while for a while , just to get the roar back .. i'll find the choice set .

Errrm, just gotta clear Derek's name here... The Harvard that made friends with the fairway was "96" and was flown by Rob Gordon (he and his wife Jenny also own the Chipmunk and the Tiger Moth based in Tauranga)
See the CAA report summary here
