Last time I rang the number in Ersa I was told sorry but the perception is that RA certificate holders are not as well trained as GA and I could not land there This was a couple of years ago David

RIP Ross and condolences to his family David

Rockhampton aero club is going pretty strong now and has a lot better feel than it had a few years ago ,has a couple of 172's and a 150 online

Very happy with mine so far ,but have only done 40 hours slightly more power oil temp down ,pressure up oil use virtually nil

Oscar I have to agree with you Ian is one of natures gentlemen and always happy to help David

From what I can gather my plane will not be affected by this proposed draft David

Fitted mine about 5 weeks ago it's serial number 0020 in the new engines but I don't know how many upgraded Jab engines are getting around

Sorry big thumbs on an I pad Don't know how to remove it David Just realized I could undo it

Hello Ian Little girls have a habit of making old dads smile my little girl (now 23 )and I spent the weekend fishing caught nothing much but we both loved it ,she was never supposed to live beyond 6 I think I am the luckiest Dad ever David

Congrats mate

Good luck with that mate but try to wheel her because it is worth it welcome

I have 700 meters at 600 feet above sea level and regularly get off the ground in 300 meters but will admit that I have gone around quite a few times due to not being happy with my approach but I don't have anywhere near 400 landings ,have had a 172/150 in and out with no problems

Merry and safe Christmas to all best of luck in the new year David

Spoke to R A Aus on Wednesday and it appears that an online exam is not sufficient in CASAs eyes and a practical component may be needed as well so the link has been removed from the website

I would like to congratulate Ross and once again offer to lend a hand in any way that I can if he needs it thanks also for those that voted for me David Marteene

I have a strip near Westwood about 40 ks along the Capricorn highway about 650 meters grass if that helps

Another book that I found very interesting is called Wings on my sleeves by Captain Eric Brown it describes his career as a test pilot for the RAF in the closing stages of WW2 he flew a lot of the captured aircraft

Thanks for that Andy that is the other thing I was wondering about the living in the area and representing it

A few hundred km west in Clermont

Thanks for that I wasn't able to find it anywhere and it puts me about on the fence so to speak
