I even like the mullet. My sis, who might be an honorary SA girl by now, introduced me to them.

Was it the Blind Mullet or the Coorong Mullet? Just asking for a friend you see?.

I love tractors and planes! I've not flown post wheelchair life but dad used to be a flight instructor here in small single engine aircraft, I do in fact have some log book flying hours in a couple of the planes, a Cessna 152 and a piper cherokee archer 2 I think it was. Helicopter I've never been in
We flew the piper to a pub once, landed in a paddock belonging to a friend of dads, got out, jumped fence and crossed road to a pub. Coolest thing I think have ever done really haha.
I drive Dads tractor sometimes. Harder now so I don't often, but will use a broom to.work pedals. I'd love to drive a big fancy one. His is a little old ford tractor

Horses, wheelchairs, power chairs, Land Rovers, kayaks, maybe tractors? Just need to get you into light planes and helicopters and you beat the rest of us! Epic_Dragon: good to go anywhere!

I owned and flew helicopters when I was young and stupid, now old but still stupid! They are horrible things until you master them, and then they become like Land Rovers, get into your blood! You could probably get a small fixed wing modified like you have with your car, but helicopters are entirely different to fly, and cannot be flown without sensitive use of the pedals. (all controls for that matter)

I grew up on a farm just around the time that little grey Fergies invaded small farming. There was an older bloke near us that had been a pilot in the war and could no longer use his legs. He had the seat on the Fergie turned to 45 degrees to the side, and a length of rod with a handle on the top of the clutch pedal extended up so he could use that with his left hand. The brake pedals were on the right, and I don't know how he managed those?

Whaddya mean "gave"?


You mean after a midnight jog around the Car Park of the local Discovery Owner's Club during their Monthly meeting & "Going Equipped"?

HINT HINT HINT".

It may pay to silicone them on so as not to lose them om corrugated Roads. Or other nefarious means like your Dad did if, you get my drift, but be removable when necessary.

Soz Mr Dragon, no offence meant.
