It tells you the RRP and the discounted prices in the images in the first post

Does anyone know what the going hourly rate is for a RAAus flight instructor?

This seems to be a big problem from what I am hearing. Lots of older instructors retiring and no new blood filling the vacancy combined with the hour builders who have no interest in instructing apart from the ability to build hours quickly

Given the tyres are flat I wouldn't think there would be too much risk of that plane flying anytime soon

Tooradin was bought by Amber Airports a few years ago, haven't heard anything good about Tooradin since then. I think they thought they could make plenty of money out of it.

I have noticed I'm getting Maurice Blackburn ads about the Matt Farrell case on social media. Seems like the ambulance chasing lawyers have aviation in their sights

I always lusted after a BD5 as a kid, as a 6"2 adult there is no way I could fit in one

I don't have ADSB, don't even have a battery, charging system or a starter for that matter

CASA can't update their drone regulations quickly enough to keep up with the advances in technology as it is,

Thanks Neil, I find talking to people who are actually using them is a big help rather than relying on online reviews. I'm based in Gippsland.

Thanks, I will continue to read up on the various options. Unfortunately at this stage it isn't a Cub, that is what I learnt to fly in and is definitely the end goal though.

So the plane I have just bought has no electrical systems at all and I have been looking at internal battery powered ADSB in/out options. Seems to be a few options including Foreflight, Uavionix, Appareo, Garmin etc. Anyone using something like this and have any feedback they would like to share? Thanks in advance

Only commercially operated drones require registration, and even then there is virtually no enforcement of the rules until something goes wrong. You can even fly a drone up to 150kg over your own land with a basic RePL remote pilots licence. There are so many recreational drones out there it isn't funny.

Great result

From the information here it appears that @RegularPerson is doing the right thing trying to educate himself about the situation he has been placed in seemingly without any consultation from his neighbour. It is also good to see he is trying to come up with an amicable solution. As SpaceSailor pointed out he could make his neighbours life very difficult by planting a line of trees or putting up a flagpole/windmill/mast etc. It's also great that the pilot is known and vouched for by a member on here but whilst we know and respect the members opinion what weight does that really have with a member of the public whose house is being overflown at low altitude. As someone who is currently looking for a property I can put an airstrip on I really hope that a satisfactory solution can be found for both parties
