The Brodies are a well known flying family, and they have a very significant event approaching to mark 100 years that the family has been involved in aviation, over four generations.<\/p>\n<p>The weekend of Friday 8th to Sunday 10th of September 2017 will see them host a very special Fly In at Rangitata Island marking that century of aviation. This social event welcomes pilots and enthusiasts from across the country, with no landing fees, the Lions Club doing the catering, free tenting on site, and lots of time for kicking back with a coffee and a sausage with other like-minded aviators, in a beautiful and idyllic spot.<\/p>\n<p>In this episode Russell and Ross talk about their family&#8217;s history in aviation, starting with the first Ross Brodie who learned to fly at Sockburn in 1917 with the Canterbury Aviation Company. His son Struan and Struan&#8217;s wife Ann both learned to fly in the 1950&#8217;s. Their son is Russell and his son, the fourth generation of pilots, is Ross.<\/p>\n<p>Russell and Ross also discuss the eclectic collection of historic microlights and aeroplanes they have at Rangitata Island &#8211; possibly the largest collection of such types in the world &#8211; and they discuss their plans to open up the airfield as a &#8220;Shuttleworth of the South&#8221; including provision for hangar homes coming soon.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/caudron.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3820\" src=\"https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/caudron-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/caudron-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/caudron-768x508.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/caudron-1024x678.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/caudron-150x99.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/caudron-400x265.jpg 400w, https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/caudron.jpg 1224w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/DSCF6334.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3821 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/DSCF6334-300x209.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"209\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/DSCF6334-300x209.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/DSCF6334-768x536.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/DSCF6334-1024x715.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/DSCF6334-150x105.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cambridgeairforce.org.nz\/WONZShow\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/DSCF6334-400x279.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a>Above: The first of the Brodie pilots, Ross Brodie in a Caudron trainer at Sockburn in 1917; and Ross and his Canterbury Aviation Company course mates in 1917.
