Default Hello to all...

Just thought I would say gidday. Name is Brian. Currently live in Alice Springs but will be moving to our house in Yea, Victoria about January 2019. Have decided to sell my plane and buy a cobra kit. Have not decided which path I will go down with this. Hope to get some guidance form the guru's here. Hope to see some of you one day for a snag and a beer or 3.

Cheers, Brian.

Hi Brian, I'd suggest coming along to one of the club meetings held by the Cobra Car Club Vic (CCCV) if you can. You'll get a wealth of information first hand from people who have bought/built the various kits on offer. CCCV meets first Wednesday of each month at The Manningham Club, 1 Thompsons Road, Bulleen.

It would be a nice drive from Yea through the Christmas Hills to Bulleen - even better in a Cobra when you get one :-). Cheers Gregg

I will be semi retired once I get to Yea. This will be a journey that I have wanted to go on for about ten years.... I am looking forward to the assembly as much as driving..... Budget will be around 100K. But will spend less if I dont see the value in spending more. If that makes sense???

Cheers, Brian.

G'day Brian!

Welcome to the forum! Good to see another pilot in the group. I own/fly a Mooney M20F.

I also own a (completed/registered) LSA powered Pace 427SC so when you are down in Melbourne, look me up. I'd be happy to show you my car.

Cheers,
Sime
