Friday night Nick Charles was asked to come to Temora and perform at his first hangar party, im not 100% sure Nick knew what he was getting him self in for, Sam & Carol hosted the event in Hanger 38, it started out just a soup and bread night, then i got involved and we had 1 big wing dang cook-up, out comes the big cook tank and 9kg slab of beef.
Well by 7pm we had every thing ready for Nick’s first bracket of music, with 50 people booked in for the event, there was total silence why he was playing and the all mighty cheering at the end of each bit of music. I dont know who was more impressed, Nick getting the big Temora party welcome of the 50 people hearing some of the best guitar music ever to hit town.
After a fantastic dinner and another hour of music there definitely 50 very happy people where glad they come to hear Nick play, I also recon Nick was pretty happy with the laid back feeling we have down here to.
Here is a link to Nicks web site http://charlesguitar.com/ he has a heap of gigs listed and this is one concert if in your area you want to see. We definitely will see him back here in the future. you can also grab a cd from his web site

We have certainly picked up the pace in February, with our Human Factors course held on 13th February attracting 19 pilots and students. People attended from Nowra, Canberra, Sydney the local area, and even one keen pilot from Werribee in Victoria! Jim Haines of Werribee has been doing some Tecnam conversion training and decided the Human Factors course was too good to miss.
Congratulations also to Geoff Gasior for his passenger endorsement, a Pilot Certificate for Scott Taubman of Young, and a first solo for Gabriele Shardlow of Young. New students include Vet Science student Ayla Hunt from Wagga, Glen and his son Matt Davidson from Canberra, Jason Cockayne of Temora Aviation Museum, Ross Howard from Cootamundra and Rowan Fleming from West Wyalong, while Shane Barker of Gerringong is enjoying some conversion flying in the Tecnam between construction of the new TAFE buildings. Recently enjoying flying the Tecnam as part of a glider conversion was Peter Plunkett of Brisbane, who also did some training with Lindsay Wallace, back for a long overdue visit to Temora recently. Margaret Struthers of Bathurst also recently flew the Tecnam as part of her conversion from a gliding licence.
We also enjoyed hosting the recent TAFE course in aerodynamics at the Aero Club with 6 students taking the opportunity to do some Tecnam flying with Quincy and Jill.
Phew, I’m exhausted just typing all this activity! Safe flying til next time,
Jill
Monday night the Temora Aero Club had an Australia Day party, Geoff did some of his majic cooking again in a couple of old beer kegs. You dont get much more Aussie than that.
