Stephen and Annie's Falco is a 180HP Falco with a High Nustrini Canopy. Their Falco took out the Concours d’Elegance at their local Sport Aircraft meet. Well done guys.

Stephen and Annie live on a sheep farm at Breadalbane, Australia and have the luxury of their own strip.

Ian and Juliet's Falco is VH-YBN (For Yabba North , where they live). YBN has 180HP and is one of the few local comfortable Falco's with the standard canopy.

Ian and Juliet have travelled some long distances in their Falco and therefor it spends most of its time with an extra fuel tank in the luggage bay.

Here they are having just stepped out of their Falco after flying across the Tasman sea !!
