  1. Will he come to Queensland too do the same ?
  2. It's a shame that thing can't be said in a way that people don't take it personally but talk about the problem in a positive and constructive way too achieve a outcome that would benefit the hole group ? Thank you for alouding me too think aloud Doug
  3. Sorry I don't agree I for one don't hide behind a user name or would be concerned if they new who I was, We need too have commutation if this is too work as I have said I feel this hole system that that are using now is in my option heading in the wrong direction but we as a group need too voice what it is that is concerning us all and I feel it would be an improvement for most too be able to chat about the strength and downfalls that this leadership is trying too achieve . We have gone away from the hard copy's that we all enjoyed reading and relied on too relay our thoughts through the letter too editors I know myself that us in the north have little or no commutation or seem too have little say in the directions that we are being lead , As for all the forum side of thing u seem too run this system pretty well why can t we invite the people in the top seats to be a part of your forum to relay our thoughts too one and other as we do now ? Just my too bob worth cheers Doug Evans.
  4. Why don't the RAA have a forum so member can speak there mind and maybe get some feedback on the Inquiries or concerns ?
  5. Me thinks thing are not good for the future may be pushing towards a lot of people leaving the ranks of the Raa . Is a shame there killing of a great pastime but time will tell .!
  6. Yes your right in this country now there be too many Nanny or safety nuts too have this type of thing I use to enjoy our ribbon cutting & balloon busting ,flour bombing runs ,spot landing and general get togethers It's a shame we seem too have lost the fun side of flying these days .
  7. Tail draggers AUF ,disappointed in the direction the RAA is going
  8. Tail draggers AUF ,disappointed in the direction the RAA is going
  9. I found that there not as good as it use to be most are GA & LSA craft now you be very lucky if u see a ultralight or microlight these days which is what I like to see so for me it losing the fun factor , but I do enjoy the flight too and from ,!
  10. Yes mate flew her up to lakeside now doing a bit of work on her now just clean up work ..
  11. 80 hp mate Cruise is 78 with the broga @4400 but a bit over prop at the moment 11 lt ph fuel burn @4400 rpm but i will be aiming for the correct rpms for the bolly max at 5800' cruise around 5500-5200 rpm ! not shoure wat speed that give ?
  12. Good mate I am going too put a bolly and she need some tlc but very happy with her
  13. Enother waste of tax payers dollars. I not bother
  14. Great too see she coming along .. I bought a enother Lightwing 25 0424 gorge creeds old plane so now I have two
  15. 426 nm. 6.5 hrs. 91 lt fuel. In a Lightwing Gympie , old station , st lawarance , lakeside Alsome flight no problems with comfort
  16. Tyres a great mate can land on just about anything ,
  17. Agree but think there are people who have the skill too pull it off and if it should i think the raa would have a few of it current members move house i would most likely be one myself if the system would work for my type of flying ! things now are gearing too much towards ga side not for the affordable and fun side of flying . eg : any one that went too old st could see the difference from early years when the craft there where AUF craft now 98 % are GA & LSA i could only see 6 craft that would fit in the affordable and fun side of flying which is a shame there must be a lot of old school plane sitting in hangars over the country not flying or only been used now and then because there not being supported bye the body that made the hole flying seen aviable back in the AUF days there have dumped the root for the GA path which is a shame for the new guy trying too get into low cost fun side of thing s' is is even getting hard to find a trainer too teach in an AUF type craft eg Drifter ,thuster .tail dragger most use jabs or sav which in my eyes are LSA craft .
  18. think if thing keep heading the way they are there will be a lot of un rego & and none compliance in the future ........ me thinks !! All if we can get a back too basic fun flying authority too start a new branch there may be a few jump ship ! just my two bob worth .....
  19. Same here don't read but not willing too pay extra for hard copy so don't get the information any more
  20. Little difference if any for the Lightwing one or both doors ! https://www.facebook.com/scott.d.evans.7/posts/10206594018874130
  21. I fly my Lightwing all the time with the doors off make no difference
