    Do you have a router in your network topography or just a switch/hub? If it was my setup (not saying its neccessarily the best way) i would use a router, still assign your ip addresses if that is waht you want, and set your gateway to the local or internal address of your phone. Your phone will still have 2 ip addresses... an internal address (your gateway) and a external address (which is what any external servers will see the requests coming from, ie. what this forum will see your address as)

    oh yeah! i know all about airsickness mate! on my tif i nearly spewed, well i felt like i did actually, but nothing came out luckily! i've slowly gotten better over the last few hours, i've taken a couple of travel calm tabs, but they are only ginger extract basically, and they seem to work. Not sure if thats the case, or the placebo effect kicking in. I think it's mainly nerves hey, i find when i'm busy flying, and not having time to think about anything except exactly that, i'm fine. This morning for instance at mackay airport, we did 6 or 7 circuits before the tower opened, and yeah no dramas at all... good luck pete!

    this really a secondary concern tothe fact that you are at 500ft and suddenly the big fan stops, but with the low time engines that have gone belly up, has jabiru payed for them? Ie. what if any warranty is there on them?

    Hi Guys and Girls. Got a question for those of you who may be more up with the CASA regs then I.. In The RA-Aus Operations manual, s2.01 - 2 it states 6. No Person shall enter controlled airspace in a recreational aircraft unless the pilot in command holds a current RA-AUS pilot certificate, has been issued with an ATC clearance and: a. Holds a current and valid private or higher category pilot licence with a CTA endorsement, or; b. Holds either; (i) an RA-Aus pilot certificate with a current CTA endorsement or; (ii)An RA-Aus student certificate with authorisation for the flight in controlled airspace or: c. the pilot in command has written approval from CASA to fly in a recreational aeroplane in controlled airspace. Further on in the regs, and this is where my real question lies, at s2.07 it says 22. An RA-Aus Controlled airspace endorsement permits the holder to operate inside controlled airspace under the following conditions; a. that the holder is subject to the requirements of any relevant legislation as amended from time to time So from what i can gather, there is provision in the RA-AUs regs for a cta endo, without the need for a GA PPL, but 2.07 22 refers to other relevant legislation, which could possibly preclude this? Any takers?
