    Had a visit from Captain Courageous himself

    Today I had the pleasure of a visit from our very own Qantas captain Markus Pilot himself. Did a circuit around Kaitak, and flew a short flight from Sydney to Canberra.
    All I can say is we all strive to build like the real thing, with that I said there is nothing better than seeing a real pilot fly!!.
    Thanks Mark, you can come and fly anytime!!!.

    We also had the pleasure of having mark over for a fly in the sim and a nice dinner down the local.

    You think you have a bit of a knowledge of things.....real pilots like mark are on a way way higher level.

    When he jumped in and started inputting way points from memory and doing things with the pm cdu that i didn't even know it could do....i knew i was mere scum of the earth..

    Hes a great bloke and has a great sense of humor too.
