  1. I am a Pilot – My level of sarcasm depends on the level of CASA and its Civil Aviation Orders (CAOs) that describe how you can meet operational, airworthiness and safety requirements (REALLY) this includes the RAA and its ops manual rules or regs “AND” bi-annual flight reviews that CFI’S AND OR instructors think they know more than me - OR disagree with me and that also REALLY REALLY pisses me off. For example 1. You need a barrister's opinion on how to read a reg or what a REG is for. Simple English even with examples - but no liability would be a problem. 2. One rule (always) conflicts with another – who writes these fairy-tales (really). 3. NEVER ever has common sense been applied to any regulation. Not allowed in government. 4. Class one or two medicals are needed to fly single engine GA aircraft or needed for RAA instructors – However (see example 5) 5. Class one medicals - Many commercial pilots (Jet) have had heart attacks in flight or driving a car after a medical (this is true - in fact some have over the years after one week of passing the medical) – Go Figure? Or maybe the rule for two pilots on commercial jet aircraft just covers CASA’s arse. 6. The insane amount of controlled airspace we have with no mandatory light aircraft lanes being required to be provided - for a nice little coastal flight up all the east coast of Australia without all this ATC clearance BS. 7. The amount of military airspace in Australia would take up whole countries in Europe for how many military aircraft in Australia? And they just turn them on and off almost without notice. (Someone should be jailed) 8. AND ASIC requirements at country airports for gods sake – just rip offs boys. – If I fly my little say Cessna 172 or Foxbat into say, Narrabri I don’t see a human for days other than bloody kangaroos trying to kill me running onto the runway. Or you are begging the refueler to come out hopefully. Surely a simple, turn up at the local cop shop once a year and give them my license and 50 bucks towards the local cops Xmas party and see if the handcuffs come out or I get a little gold stamp for being a good boy gets ride of this ASIC crap for us noncommercial pilots. Could go on and on but just thought you guys would like to argue any points that I have or have missed as I could write a bible. Please feel free to include more if inclined or argue. Till Next time - smile and enjoy aviation.
  2. Hi Uncle Frank - and how many hundreds of hours have you flow under 300 ft in the last 100 years?
  3. What is the medical standard required for the proposed 760 kg weight increase?
  4. So I now have a myGov account and a separate myGov ID account and also I had to get a separate Directors ID - Please - Defund the Government now it costs us our lives in stupidity. So this is DEFINED AS myGovID and your myGov account are different Your myGov account lets you link to and access government services like Medicare and the ATO. myGovID is the Australian Government's Digital Identity app you can use to sign into a range of participating government online services like myGov. To set up your myGovID, you need: a smart device. The myGovID app is compatible with most smart devices and is only available from the Apple App Store or Google Play. a personal email address. As it's your personal Digital Identity, your identity documents will be linked to the email you choose. ... to be 15 years or older. However, as I am a director of a company, they want more A DIRECTORS ID What is director ID in Australia? A director ID is a unique identifier given to a director who has verified their identity with us. This will help to prevent the use of false or fraudulent director identities. Are we over governed or what? Why with all this information do we still need a bloody ASIC for airports - now that anyone who has a minimum of a myGovID has provided enough ID to all government Depatments. As the accountant said - the government tells you to bend over, and an "unlubricated pineapple" is inserted backwards in your REAR. ENJOY.
  5. All are fun in 20 kts of crosswind top of FUN IS same plane as a taildragger. Enjoy the paperwork.
  6. Come on Guys - it was a tongue in cheek comment - anyone smile here anymore?
  7. Remember qantas did did not put enough in last week for perth - could be teaching them new glide approach and landings so the board can get bigger bonuses.
  8. Back in the day it was calledAir Whitsunday - Biggest beaver seaplane fleet in Australia - from memory two straight floatplanes beavers and three amphibious beavers. Plus twin engine mallard seaplane and couple of buccaneers.
  9. Frank you old basta** - tell the truth - how many real engine failures in total - including the toys before the drifter you have had. I know the real you so no fibs. happy new year to you and Fran SSCBD
  10. Before RAA and AUF we all flew overweight - CASA had to back down as no one could really fly legally. To make it legal AUF was formed so CASA could make us legal. Also the two seat aircraft Drifter and Thruster Gemini were also illegal till they were forced to certify them and put a system in place for pax. I am surprised it has not been pushed harder and faster, how many of us are actually legal at takeoff with two up. Example - Did a BFR a few years ago with a rather large instructor and myself not being small with full fuel. Work it out?
