Mark Newton<p>Had a good long weekend at Temora to inaugurate our 2025 Pacific Airshow Gold Coast routine.</p><p>The team is 16-strong this year. Last year we had 13, and billed it as the largest formation display team in the Southern Hemisphere, then the kiwis went and equalled it so we had to get bigger :)</p><p>The team lead is flying Jeremy Miller’s Yak-55. We also have an Extra 300L. The other 14 aircraft are various flavors of Vans RV designs.</p><p>We have two women on the team too. We hoped to have three, but one of them had a fairly expensive technical fault ground their aircraft, so they had to decline the invitation. Next year!</p><p>One of the team members only got his formation flying endorsement a month ago. Now he’s going to fly in the biggest airshow team in the southern hemisphere in the biggest airshow in Australia. Learning curve.</p><p>Everyone’s improving already, and, above all, it was a safe training weekend.</p><p>Can’t wait ‘til August.</p><p>The flight home: IFR at 7000. Planned Temora-METUV-AKMIR-DARGI then onwards to Bankstown, but Melbourne Centre gave me track shortening straight to DARGI. Sydney ATC cleared me into controlled airspace so I could stay above all the training traffic down low. 1h15m from Temora to Bankstown to end the weekend. <a href="https://eigenmagic.net/tags/avgeek" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>avgeek</span></a></p>

Ian Kluft ✈️🎈🌋<p>Boeing sends new planes for painting in Portland as extra capacity beyond what their paint hangars in the Seattle area can handle. At Everett <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/KPAE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KPAE</span></a> they can paint new 777s &amp; 767s (and formerly 747s) on field before first flight.

And new 737s fly out of Renton <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/KRNT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KRNT</span></a> either to Boeing Field <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/KBFI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KBFI</span></a> in Seattle or to Portland <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/KPDX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KPDX</span></a> for paint. <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/aviation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>aviation</span></a> <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/avgeek" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>avgeek</span></a> <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/business" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>business</span></a> <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/travel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>travel</span></a> <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/PNW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PNW</span></a></p>
Ian Kluft ✈️🎈🌋<p>Before a plane arrives in Portland, there are hints an <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/avgeek" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>avgeek</span></a> can use to anticipate if it's probably a brand new green plane... It has to be coming from an airport with a Boeing factory, either Everett Paine Field <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/KPAE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KPAE</span></a> (777 &amp; 767, soon Max10) or Renton Municipal Airport <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/KRNT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KRNT</span></a> (737). Then the flight path can be a big hint that the test pilots are putting a never-before-flown aircraft through the "test card" checklist. So it isn't exactly a direct route. 😀 <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/aviation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>aviation</span></a> <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/avgeek" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>avgeek</span></a> <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/business" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>business</span></a> <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/travel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>travel</span></a></p>
Ian Kluft ✈️🎈🌋<p>Today I spotted a brand new Boeing 737 MAX8 arriving from Renton <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/KRNT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KRNT</span></a> on its B1 flight (first flight of the aircraft from the factory with Boeing test pilots) at Portland Int'l Airport <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/KPDX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KPDX</span></a> Runway 28L. As it went by I saw United globe livery on the already-painted rudder. So after this plane gets out of Boeing's Portland paint hangar, United test pilots will probably fly it on its 2nd flight. Assuming tests pass, United will pay for it &amp; take delivery. <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/aviation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>aviation</span></a> <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/avgeek" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>avgeek</span></a> <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/business" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>business</span></a> <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/travel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>travel</span></a> <a href="https://avgeek.social/tags/PNW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PNW</span></a></p>
