How many examples of the NGA Gippsland Nomdad N24 airplanes, by way of 'intended orders'from both Curry-Kenny Aviation & Airfreight Solutions of Bathusrts in New South Wales, have been received so far?
I guess that the Curry-Kenny order/s will be for it's > Slingair subsidiary airline, over in Western Australia?

MTIA for any/all help

I think the 3-view line drawing is actually of the N24 (longer fuselage) version and not the N22.

Moktar, Gippsland Aeronautics have purchased all rights to the Nomad from Boeing and will be providing support for them.

I have a list of all the Nomads built at http://www.cnapg.org/nomad.htm if anyone is interested.

Dear Sir,

I fly a GAF Model N22C Serial Number 95 in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia. Please advise me of the best ways (1. Drag Strut, Nose Oleo Leg, Nose Gear Cradle, shimmy damper or any partes of the nose gear steering mechanism) to solve nosewheel oscillations. It has beed a constant problem which our maintenance department is trying to find ways to solve.

Thank you and best regards from us.

I saw a GAF Nomad in service in Panamaґs Paetilla airport in may 1969. It was mainly used to carry tourists to/from Contadora Island, in the pacific ocean. The pilotґs comments on the aircraft were very, very appreciative...
Yours is a great site. Carry on the good work.
Sincerely,
