I'm a hot rod fan from way back so I always enjoy being part of the Bright Rod Run.
The scenery around Bright is spectacular - interesting for a display but still spectacular.
By Australian standards, it is quite mountainous.
The standard of cars that attend this event is amazing. Just Google it ...
The main web site is here:
I did 2 displays and I was happy with both but due to the location, proximity of the town etc I do wind it down a notch or three. Despite this, I still got a noise complaint back through CASA from someone living in town.
Next time I will need to be even more careful to avoid the town area. You'd think with a 1000 hot rods visiting town you wouldn't worry about 1 aircraft flying around for 5 minutes ...
Last year I had a disaster with fuel - the bowser at broken which made refuels tricky to say the least!
No such problem this year and I was well supported by the Wangaratta Aeroclub - thanks guys!
