Whilst spelling/grammar has always been overrated it’s something that employers look at closely, as well as the psycho crap! The best person for a job is no longer the one who will get the job, it’s the ‘right’ person! Now to go see what this survey is all about.

CASA ....Check this ...what a KlusterF**

The best legacy the old bastard did was give the enemy a very hard time👍 Glen Buckley replaces Ben to keep giving the enemy a very hard time, both hero’s in my mind!👍 -
What to wear in the cockpit?
Flightrite replied to Old Koreelah's topic in Aircraft Incidents and Accidents
I love the fear created with Mob Ph’s and refuelling, I’d like a dollar fir everytime Ive used a Mob Ph next to tanks being fuelled👍Also not to be used in flight, that cracks me up!😂 -

Fire after a crash is too common sadly! I lost a good mate many years ago in a croppy accident, he survived the impact but was trapped and burned alive, haunted me for years!🙁Imagine the pilots of WW1, fire in flight was common and no chute!🙁 -

I recall that event very well, it was discussed at length in our Co. The law’s an ass! -
ASI in MPH. Australia. Would you?
Flightrite replied to danny_galaga's topic in Instruments, Radios and Electronics
One of my flying machines is in MPH, no big deal, a pilot is meant to be able to adapt. I wouldn’t waste yr money and swap it out! ATC might say maintain 90 KTS but they are clueless as to what you are actually indicating! -

Unbelievably there are pilots out there who support CASA!! Believe they are doing a good job!!! I was fortunate that me 3 offspring (ones I know of😂) were never interested in aviation as a career, I was spared as they were! -

Ya gotta remember it’s Australia, a nation known for corruption at ALL levels! CASA has always been a ‘jobs for the boys club’, a culture hiding behind the protection of multiple layers of bureaucracy and impenetrable as we have seen over many enquires! This is just another smoke screen! -
Arriving safe is the most satisfying part, the rest you can talk about at the bar😉 Over 200 kts today @ 9.5K ISA+17c, living’ ‘da dream👍

It always comes back to poor training. The plane driver said he was losing directional control, a well disciplined trained plane driver would have aborted the take off instead of yanking it off the ground, poor training. Stalling and not understanding what constitutes a stall and how to get out of it, poor training! There will always be plane drivers who think they know better, but with rigorous check flights when due (other than more box ticking during a Flight review) would show them up most times!

Flightrite replied to Old Koreelah's topic in Aircraft Incidents and Accidents
You dress/ fly according to the mission. I keep a well stocked good ‘last resort’ survival kit in my main x country machine and basic first aid and water in my local drivers. I never wear things or shorts, strong leather boots and well fitting clothes, the later has often saved someone’s life by keeping the body secure when injured. -
CH47D Chinook👍
