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

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

Haha - a Falcon, so somewhere in between
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

Yeah, it's worth more than the car.

You should be the most concerned. I've seen Nathan's navigation skills
