An update for you!
My Grob 109b is now on the Hvar airstrip for the season, having been ferried by the legendary Tim Dews of Airborne Composites, plus chum Chris Maynard. Their trip was an adventure in itself, completed in 13hrs total flying time over 2 days.
Operating out of our island paradise is very simple. Fuel is available on nearby Brac, Split Radar could not be more helpful.
A BIG thank you to Tim for his awesome skills in preparing my gorgeous aircraft and for delivering it. A BIG thank you too to Vertigo Covers. The cover set we took out in advance is amazing, and well worth the investment. I am currently in Blighty but the reports from the island after 140kph winds show that my precious aircraft is totally fine.
There are plenty of tie downs, the strip is great. Care needs to be taken to avoid prop tip abrasion. We have flown several hours off it so far and no problems.
Feel free to call me any time if you plan to visit. Fellow aviators will be well looked after if we are there. Transport to and from, accomodation etc.
Hurrah!
