  1. Sad to hear that news, with a punctured lung lucky your still with us. The bones will knit and the pain subside hopefully. The urge to fly won't go away and if your unable to PIC im sure a pax seat will await within our flying community.

     

    Best wishes.

     

     

  2. G,day Marty welcome aboard sir, i,m planing a trip up your way via vehicle with aircraft net season, iI fly a storch but will be their with a GT500 for a much longer visit this time, I would like to meet up then if possible as I have no pilot contacts up their to help with local knowledge, locations, ect, cheers Hargraves (Mick)

    That would have to be a mighty GT500 in the trailer. Mick also contact Kevb this forum with the (Mighty) Hornet (Drifter) that he flew from your neck of the woods to Darwin.

     

     

  3. Kaz I just posted somewhere here that we start up UBER RAA , all we need is an app as now we have a precedent that a pollie can do it so why not all of us. To hell with CASA and any rules.

    Pollies can do a lot of things we can't do. Great Pensions, perks, change their mind, lack of conscience etc. Id like to see them have to go to Centrelink and do an assets test to get their pension.

  4. I don't put that much trust in the ATSB findings. Myself and Mark Kyle (Kylecom) witnessed a Cessna crash at YCAB some years back and were interviewed separately. We had a little plane model in our hand showing the last moments of flight and impact straight in. When later reading the results of the enquiry they had it cartwheeling down the runway. Mark and I looked at each other and shrugged.

  5. The type involved flies an elliptical wing with a 2 point attachment which can stall. the common machine in Aus the Aerochute has a rectangular wing and 4 point attachment and cannot spin or stall but its not a sporty machine. No fatalities in this type in Aus been available for 30 years. We are now seeing some of this new type in this country requiring significantly more skill to operate.
