    Guess I agree somewhat, as it is an ideal forum or place to get ones point of view across...078_pc_revenge.gif.92f2d38a0e662b2e0b6cba4dc0ba5c35.gif Love this smilie..

     

    But I'm still concerned about comments or blatant disregard for regulations in particular MTOW etc as dangerous. My concern is seeing so many 'Posts' where pilots are stating they load to clear the runway fence. This is my concern as it reflects badly on the safety conscious pilot who calculates weights, fuel capacity etc staying under RA 600KG importantly representing RA responsibly.

     

    Recent Natfly saw CASA weighing. Was it because people were 'Posting' those type of comments regarding MTOW. Guess we will never know...052_no_way.gif.ab8ffebe253e71283aa356aade003836.gif

     

    But I am not going to go on a public forum and let the Police know I speed up the Hume Highway every Friday night. Maybe I'm reading to much into it but I think it's basically baiting the hook..082_scooter.gif.e6a62d295b0b59b8276038871473d864.gif

     

     

  2. It sometimes amazes me when Forum users respond using abbreviations such as CASA and RA etc thinking statutory authorities don't monitor these sites.

     

    A simple search by that or any authority reveals who is talking about them.

     

    The blatant disregard by some users 'Posting on site' does not reflect the profession group RA has as members.

     

    I'm not having a go at anyone but just making an observation - do a pre flight check before "Posting"..072_teacher.gif.7912536ad0b89695f6408008328df571.gif

     

    The a forum provides a great resource for me and I usually have my questions answered before I get to ask them..020_yes.gif.58d361886eb042a872e78a875908e414.gif

  3. Dave, as I will be at Natfly I look forward to seeing your aircraft.

     

    Hopefully testing is all complete and you are there. I will be departing Bendigo as a guest of Will Q. who has kindly organized a seat for me to Natfly.

  4. Kevin, Alan - thanks will make sure I catch up with them. No doubt they will be busy and I will head up to their base to possibly take a better look.

     

    I have seen figures of 130 cruise. I have also seen some discussion here on the Forum where owners had made some real improvements to the cruising speed.

     

    I will have a look for this again - no doubt Gary and his Morgan owners will be up on this..
