What Plane can you be Trained in

Nup.... can't find any clause that insists that 95.32 have to be factory built for training use with RAAus. anyone else keen to have a go? http://www.comlaw.gov.au/Details/F2011L00615 -

And that's fair enough too IMHO. I don't think I'd want to fly in something I'd built either! -

Bugger! I was counting on you saying "no thanks" ... Mike, the devil is in the details. There are differences in the exemptions and conditions of flight. I've not spent a lot of time trawling through 95.32 as I don't fly or own one. Hopefully someone who does will join in. Anyway..... 95.55 - Three axis, up to 45knt stall, 600kg MTOW, yadda yadda yadda.... plus this for owner builders Usual disclaimers apply. Speak to your instructor, CFI, lawyer, etc., for proper advice.

Your understanding is correct for 95.55 Mick. Not real sure with 95.32 I could hunt up some references if you wish. -

How do you know 'when' an aircraft has stalled?
ahlocks replied to Tomo's topic in AUS/NZ General Discussion
You can stall a wing at all sorts of speeds if you put your mind to it. Picture an aeroplane with a path perpendicular to the ground but holding say 20 degrees angle of attack while desperately trying to pull out of the dive. There is gravity, thrust and drag present but there is not much lift vector (even if it is horizontal) being generated because it is stalled. Well, there's a bit of horizontal lift being generated off the fuselage for the tail feathers to act against and hold the high angle of attack, but the moral of the story is to recognise that you are stalled, i.e. the aeroplane not doing what it's told and plummeting earthward, break that stall and then you get to worry about pulling out of the dive without stalling again. Me either... I was quite happy to accept the lift pixie theory until all this started. -

ahlocks replied to Tomo's topic in AUS/NZ General Discussion
Perzactly Dazz! Although, I did have a dissertation on the diagnosis of lift pixium absentia and how to carry out that diagnosis whilst chanting "oh dear, oh dear" and plummeting earthward underway. -
