For anyone that will be near Jandakot...

Post by Nafenn »

... on Monday around 9am - please make sure you are not in the area between Jandakot, Canningvale Prison, Forrestdale lake, and back to Jandakot.

this is because (given the weather) i am hoping to go for my first solo at this time :P

anyone in the area... listen out for VH-BFC (Bravo Foxtrot Charlie) on 119.40MHz, but stay out of that area :P

Should I be concerned, since I'm taller than average? Do I need to learn how to duck? :P

Haha - a Falcon, so somewhere in between :P

And as has been mentioned, I think the concern is over me losing the top 1/3rd of my antenna ;)

get a cardboard decoy of you and put it on a trailer if you're in the area, then he'll aim for that and miss your antenna :P
