planeimages > Always busy. The life of an airshow director is always on the go. Martin Robson sorts out the timing for Pip Boorman's race with Todd Kelly.

planeimages > Honour satisfied all round. Todd Kelly and Pip Borrman after their match races with Tyabb On Show airshow Director Martin Robson. Pip's Castrol Aviator Zivko Edge 540, VH-PIP, is one of only 6 in the world.
See Pip's Edge Aerobatics website : http://www.edgeaerobatics.com.au/ for more information on this exciting combination.

Sadly I have to record the death of my dear friend Martion Robson in a Busby Mustang on Sunday, 11th January 2009.

See Todd's website for details of his motor racing and an account of the race between them at Tyabb: www.toddkelly.com.au

planeimages > The turbo-prop Air Tractor demonstrated aerodynamic airflow over its wing with smoke from the exhaust and water from the spray booms. The stationary boundary layer over the wing's camber is very evident and shows how far back the centre of aerodynamic pressure lives on this airfoil.

The small prop under the fuselage drives a centrifugal compressor for the spray mechanism. Looking suspiciously like an automotive turbocharger adapted for the task.

planeimages > Pip Borrman flies his Castrol Aviator Zivko Edge 540 VH-PIP to an interesting landing in the flukey 3/4 crosswind on Saturday 18th. The springy landing gear making life difficult.

An airshow director was always in a hurry. Martin Robson hurries along.
