No one wants to advise either way so perhaps ill ask a different way, if you were hiring a plane from someone, would you rehire from them if you came across these issues?

No.

Sean.

Good work James, many happy days flying to you.

Sean.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

b. Are "runway beat ups" legal?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

Very sad news indeed, the lounge was a great place.

Last year I flew V1 in the YWOL Piper SportCruiser and had lunch with the CFI in the lounge, it was a very enjoyable day.

FRIDAY FUNNYMine has been delayed, apparently it needs a renewal of registration ROR, and there has been an issue with the proof reading of print (PROP) and as this is done by different people it is considered as a VPP variable Pitch PROP. It then has to have its weight & balance recorded WAB, and as Australia Post don't have this documentation, it needs to be resent.

Who knows with all this red tape, some of us may never see it.

Page 44, fantastic article, fantastic flying school.....!!

Sean.

Thanks Everyone.

I think I'll plan for Boonah instead, fingers crossed for good flying weather this Wednesday...!!

Sean (would you believe me if I said "29"?)

Cheers Dazza.

Grass it is then, I used the strip a few years ago and grass was the go.

I hope they have a new windsock by now, it had blown off the pole......

We are just stopping there for leg stretch (YCAB navex) and a cuppa if the store is open.

Fingers crossed for good flying weather.

I am looking for current YKBN information/condition and if possible a contact details of someone who has flown into Kooralbyn lately.

Cheers.

Hi everyone, I am tossing up if I should change from Raa to Ga, as I can't see the advantage in Raa. The price of Raa aircraft seem to be to high for me, icould get a Cessna 150 or Piper Tomahawk for half to price of a Jabiru or the like. Can some of you more experienced pilots give me some advice please.Pete[/quote}\]

What do other instructors/FTFs use for the required model aircraft training aid?My current one, of a Skyfox, is due for a major overhaul.

Does anyone have a good (affordable) source of model with moving control surfaces that is sturdy enough for the briefing room?

Did you find one and if so where?

Cheers.

Sean

I am not familiar with the terms CSU or AP. What are both?

AP = in flight Adjustable Propeller (RAAus endorsement)

Cheers.

Sean.

GoFly Aviation Caboolture's Flight Design CT has a CSU fitted.

So if you don't have your AP endorsement, this is the way to GO, for sure.

Cheers.

Sean.

Yes, GO GoFly Aviation Caboolture you can't GO wrong.

If you need anymore info, please feel free and PM me.

Cheers.
