  1. Only if we get another ex CASA retiree.
  2. Don't need a current BFR if you are grounded. Wait until you are flying ---eventually before you renew.
  3. Yes Bigs.5128 that's the way I did it. Got the grader in first to prepare the surface. Most of my operation now is in the Tecnam with the standard 500 x 5 and you need the surface as smooth as possible.
  4. No it just drains away naturally. I have taken off one morning after 50mm of rain overnight in a GA aircraft. (AA5B)
  5. Definately the best to grade it with a slight fall off to the sides. Then tow a sheet of mesh behind a car to level and pick up any small sticks. I then seeded mine with a 40 to 1 mixture of Siberian Millett and Couch seed.
  6. Interesting. If it is renewed from the past due date then you won't have been unregistered at all !
  7. Depends if they renew it from the due date or from the date when eventually process the renewal?

  9. I used a credit card at Old Station at the fly in last May.
  10. Jab valve failure on takeoff at YBAF last week. He managed to get back on the runway and stop before running out of room. Lucky!!
  11. Approved 29th June 2012 On 29 June 2012, the Acting Director of Aviation Safety granted an exemption, CASA EX68/12 against the holding of a medical certificate by holders of a CASA issued Student pilot licence, Private pilot licence, Commercial pilot licence and Air Transport pilot licence - when a pilot is conducting private operations and agreed to comply with the limitations and conditions in the exemption, which includes being subject to a modified driver licence medical examination.
  12. I was expecting another few years. It's been in the CASA non works for over 10 years.
  13. Annual Ground Rent is payable to AAC based on the area (m2) and is at a rate equivalent to adjacent industrial property rents in the area. flyhi
  14. Great weekend as usual at 'Old Station' Missed the jelley wrestling but managed to see the womens cross cut saw comp with Leonie and the girls getting into it. Good to catch up with you and Helen again. Departed OSN 8.30 this morning (Mon) for Talegalla . Had a good run in the Tecnam. Pity about the 20kt headwind. Mick
  15. All the Beechcraft Bonanzas and Debonairs I have flown had vernier throttles. ....Mick
  16. Those Dates 13th -15th Sept are Thursday to Saturday ?
  17. Pud I use a 'Sportsock' from the Kite Shop at my strip. Have a look at kitepower.com.au
  18. Little Jonny Howard promised to do that with the big gun buy back. Mean while back on ASIC's I have had an ASIC issued to me with someone else's photograph on it. Don't know if it was a mix up with the photos of someone with the same as me or not. Then when I went for my last Class2 medical renewal and my DAME brought up my CASA details on the computer screen lo and behold there was this other blokes or terrorist's picture on the screen complete with my ARN number and address details. He said 'thats not you' So much for the validity of CASA's info if it is gathered from ASIC application mix ups. Ah well just like all computer databases: "Garbage in = Garbage Out"
  19. I use PSB Insurance Brokers. They are also the brokers for RAA members liability insurance. Their Aviation man is Geoff Tonkin in Adelaide (08) 82672875
