Seems to be just aligning regs with what GA can do. Still cannot have a school plane 'on condition' in RAAus which I understand you can do in GA.

I thought 24 and 23 were both factory built ?

A lot of people using them in the US. Only issue is it takes weight away in front of the firewall and and effects w&b.

That does not sound right. I suspect that is the RV12 price WITHOUT the engine or avionics.

Do you have a GPS position for Frogs Hollow ? Ignore me, it is in Garmin Pilot. YFGS S 36 45.583 E 149 48.267 DD MM.MMM

So 8 days ?

That is a lot of battery power for a very small distance travelled (55km).

No solar panels I can see. Requires 4 men to handle the enormous power cord ?

Its also a SAAA information document. This may or may not be all the current CASA requirements.

But if you have never done the paperwork for class 1/2 but have the same conditions you can get class 5 ? Wonder if this will change after class 5 review.

My understanding is that the Rotax specified full synthetic oil was developed because the 916 ran hotter than expected and Rotax wanted a full synthetic to handle the heat. There are known problems with most full synthetic oils not being able to suspend the lead (from Avgas) so a huge amount of testing and changes to the oil additives were performed until they found a suitable additives package. Appears that the 912UL, 912ULS, 912IS, 914 and 915 can run fine on the Shell aero oils.

Yep. You need an ASIC before applying for a RPL or PPL. I believe you do not have to maintain it after the first issue.

What we need is the same system as the country with the Twin Towers incident that started all this.
