Kev's New Machine
3 Oct 2008 saw Australia’s annual Rotorway Awards / Dinner at The Whitsundays { Australia’s number 1 tourist destination spot. The Evening was hosted by Kev & Enid with about 30 local flyer’s spouses, hanger-on’s attending including factory Rep’s Mark and Tom.
The evening started with an awards presentation by Kev to local attendee’s for worst builder, longest build, worst pilot etc. All in good fun. Guests then moved downstairs to Arlie’s famous seafood restaurant "Fish D'vine"where gluttony prevailed for the rest of the evening.
Saturday the 4th saw attendee’s rocking up to Kev’s establishment for Talon demonstration, rides and inspections. Tom conducted briefings on the Talon and future company projects and direction.
Mark in the hanger oversaw the covers off inspection of John’s 95% complete builder assist Talon
Kev conducted the demo flights on his newly completed machine for all flyer’s and nervous spouses of present builders. {you couldn’t blame any one from being nervous after witnessing Kev’s arrival with a 79 year old builder dropping in with an auto to 50 feet the pulling up into a steep sharp pedal turn before planting it on the deck.......bloody show off!}
Enid supplied finger food and drinks for all, organised the groups, loaded the sorties and organised the days proceedings. All attendee’s left after liquid refreshments with a happy glint in their eyes. All were suitably impressed.
