  1. This suggests that you need to have a CASA license to get an ASIC. " Applying for your ASIC Paying for and Collecting your ASIC As a General Aviation pilot who is not paid in their role (i.e. a member of a general aviation flight club), you will not have an Employer who can sponsor your operational need. When applying in the Applicant Portal, you will be asked to enter an Employer Code. You will need to use an Employer Code provided by AusCheck specifically for General Aviation pilots. To obtain this code you should speak to your flight club or contact AusCheck. AusCheck will validate your pilot's licence with CASA prior to sending your application for background checking. Operational Need Template for General Aviation: "I am a recreational pilot and hold a current Flight Crew Licence ... (Licence Number) issued by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA). I require an ASIC for unescorted access to ... (specify location or locations if AUS wide is required) to support this activity. You will be required to bring your flight crew licence to the identity verification appointment to be uploaded as evidence of operational need. There will be no other changes to the identity verification process. Canberra Region General Aviation pilots: You will need to ensure you select Department of Home Affairs - Canberra when choosing your Verifier. South Australian General Aviation pilots: You will need to ensure you select Department of Home Affairs - AusCheck - Adelaide Airport when choosing your Verifier." SUCH IS LIFE
  2. Rather presumptuous - this isn't RAAs fault. It might be better to beat up on your local member of parliament - they enacted ASIC - they are the roadblock
  3. That is a very big meter. However there are 1000 mm in a metre
  4. I'm not sure that there was much misrule in the states except that there appears to be a large chunk of the USA who hate dark people and women.
  5. This sounds like more "alternative facts"!
  6. No change, always been a problem.
  7. Enroll in the training and fill in the forms - those should be able to give you a pass/fail before you submit. If you fail then you can organise your ducks for a full class 2. I occasionally fly with more than 1 passenger so no cheap kicks for me.
  8. In some areas in the US they are probably still on party-line phones.
  9. Magazine? I think you're confusing AOPA with RAAus and its magazine.
  10. Cat G and CTA won't be compulsory just as high power and nose wheel are voluntery - I'm not sure but you might be able to get an RPC with no endos at all - it all depends on what sort of flying you do.
  11. You don't need a transponder for Class D or G.
  12. But much better than the usual offering of Dolly and Womens Weekly from 1993 at the dentist. I read the magazine to be informed and entertained and you can turn down the corners to keep your place. With 10,000 members there is a wide variety of expectations and biases. PS at the strip it is called "mogas" to distinguish it from "avgas" with an expectation that that description wouldn't include E10 - bad stuff for planes.
  13. Have a link to a wavelength table. https://www.cumulus-soaring.com/files/antenna_lengths.pdf 121.5Mhz might be a better frequency as it is the emergency frequency and the 1/4 wave (24.3" 617mm) is only 1" (25.4mm) longer than 126.7 (23.31“ 592mm)
