Hi from Newcastle

Hi Guys,

I've spent a few days lurking around and simply had to sign up. I do a bit of flying for work and I do love to fly so I figured I'd combine the two in the aim of getting to QFF Gold - The justification to remove the need to pay for QC Membership. I am fortunate enough to have 400,000 points in the bank so I figure it's time to chase some SC's.


I must say it is a little overwhelming in trying to translate some of the SC runs I've seen into an actual search and a booking but I am sure I will work that out (Unless there is a trick?).

For now I think it's time to read, rear, read and work out just what I don't know.

Cheers,
Rob

Welcome aboard robert.smith. you've got a hard location to try and get some Qf flights from. Still there are others from your neck of the woods who will assist in due course.

Happy travelling.

Welcome Rob
Good luck with your chase for Gold (although you'll need to desert NTL to use it )

Thanks Guys - Agreed on location - But Sydney's not that far away to kick off & is where I'll do most of my flying - or a quick and nasty Jetstar to Brisbane to get things moving!

All the best in your hunt for gold. That is also my goal for this year.
