Did CASA approve this de-icing procedure?

EFIS provides that same information, (altitude, airspeed, direction, time) - that's what it's written for, one can assume, as eluded to in 3A.4. Regs can't keep pace with technology. I've seen some old biplane with the airspeed indicator being a moving stick thing against a scale out on the wing strut. Nev probably learned on one of those, he'll know what it was on - early Tiger? It was an ASI, but not as we know it today.

All these vegan references are a big missed steak.

I'll contact you off forum KR. The info was updated Feb 2017, and I know exactly what has gone on here. I will help you, have no fear!

What is the date on the bottom of your CofA pack paperwork KR? (first section, page 1 of 5).

Word back in April had it that Micro Aviation NZ might have acquired all the CAMiT tech............?? New Zealand certainly has the engineering capability to continue it on.

Can I suggest KR, that you call your state National Councillor (listed in Airsport), or the Pres. They need to know your story. You are the best person to tell it.

All sorted, he has the required info.

Let's just go straight to the source to save time: Airworthiness delegates search | Civil Aviation Safety Authority enter desired STATE Power = 21.195A APPLY Two of the APs listed are the SAAA reps. Any AP can cross the border to do the work, if they are willing and able and available. Like everything, it comes at a cost though.

The 21.195A list of delegates is available on the CASA website. Let me know if you can't find it. I'd be a bit surprised if there wasn't one (commercial) nearby. Stephen Dines did a lot, but I heard he was in poor health of late sadly. LSA manufacturers can't help you, other than with AP suggestions. What you are being told is not quite the full story. For a normal CofA, an annual will have been done, the LAME will have prepared a new Maintenance Release for issue (not signed or dated) and that is what theCASA AWI will want to see. He issues a CofA, the LAME signs and dates the M/R, you kick the tyres, light the fires. Similar for experimental, though AP's aren't quite so fussed about seeing a ready-to-go M/R on the table. You can't fly without one, but that doesn't stop them issuing an EXP Cert. If you have it ready to go (sign etc) all the betterer.

All SAAA APs are a voluntary role, for members. But of course, if they are not near, and can't get there, they can't help. Commercial APs are at commercial rates and also may not be willing to travel far. A LAME can't issue a new Maintenance Release (on anything) without doing an annual inspection. Someone else with an RV9 cannot issue a new M/R and do maintenance for someone elses RV9.

Sorry to hear all that. 1. You must have an Experimental Certificate before a Maintenance Release can be issued (ie, signed and dated) 2. The MPC certificate to enable you to issue your own M/R is a CASA requirement. I'm not up with next courses dates. 3. A friendly LAME can personally issue a M/R him/herself, (outside of a registered workshop if need be) and only after annual inspection is completed. 4. Yes, more AP's are coming, including one in Sydney. After applying to CASA, then the waiting begins. ETA? NFI. 5. Search CASA website for a private AP perhaps, in the interim? There's one in Cowra, but that's not super close by. I hear Mr Dines is not so well at present and may be non-op.

Precisely! Well described!

A small correction to your earlier post Jaba-Who: APs (for VH experimental) don't actually have the power within their CASA Instrument of Appointment to approve any maintenance aspects for anybody, but they sure do have the power to prevent it, ie, LAME maintenance only, "in the interests of safety of other airspace users and persons on the ground or water." This is common for bought aircraft (to be newly registered), brought in (to Aust) aircraft, and cases where the applicant cannot prove to the satisfaction of the AP that they built it (well, more than 51% of it). So regarding APs "approving maintenance", a better description is that they have no reason to disagree with owner/builder maintenance happening. CASA takes care of the approvals via the various criteria within the maintenance Instrument of Appointment (currently, Instrument 15/16.) If one meets those listed criteria, that makes you approved, and away you go. An APs Instrument of Appointment details very specifically what they can do, and approving maintenance is not one of them. Back at the start of Experimental, yes, it was common for an AP to approve (really, concur with) builder maintenance, (before CASA mandated certain things to happen.) Now, not so. You have a very good understanding of the processes for VH EXP Jaba, thank you for your contributions to the discussion and keeping people on the right track!

Great video by not me.

Country here too. I've been through Bogan Gate and past The Bogan Way west of Parkes. Didn't really see any.

Just heard from my mate "on the water" there in his bird at 4:15pm Fri. Couple of SeaReys, a Renegade, a nice new Rans S7 with the coolest rego/callsign possible, a Super Petrel or two, no Bird Dog coming (though the owner is there), and quite a few others weathered in around Sydney unable to get out. Catalina still planned to get there eventually, but will not land on the water. Transmission ends........................

Y Koo Wee Rup. (I didn't bother to look if it was already used!)

Add JETGO to Essendon airlines. Would YKWR (?) have a dedicated Bogan lounge?

Looking at this another way Zodiac, so you don't get your ASIC in time, so what. Won't you then be just like every single other person wandering all over Avalon airside secure area with no ASIC? I assume Avalon gets declared a Special Event Zone to allow 343,276 or so other non ASIC holders to freely wander the public areas classified as airside. I also assume you plan to fly into Avalon to display (park) your aircraft, not Avalon East. Unless they want your ASIC card number in advance, just go. If you get bailed up, just declare yourself to be a visitor and demand a VIC (visitor ID card) and an armed escort as you go about your lawful business. But yes, of course it's disappointing to not get a card in a timely manner, you're trying to do the proper thing. Good luck either way, enjoy the event.

Once more with feeling..... ASIC has got nothing (n.o.t.h.i.n.g.) to do with CASA. It's not their baby. See the link posted by the topic starter.

Yes, correct there, thanks for that. I was more thinking of the other flight instruments, only IFR in USA need them checked, as detailed in the FARs.

Yes you are correct Yenn. This "only for CTA" is an urban myth, pure B.S., sometimes spruiked by LAME's on a maint release. Where do they get it? It's not in AD/RAD/47 or CAO 100.5. The AD and the CAO are for all transponders, as you say Yenn, and that's where it ends. But, I'm happy to be proven wrong readers, just quote me the relevant regulation paragraph and we'll shake on it. Interestingly, regular instrument testing is only required for IFR aircraft in USA. VFR's don't require it.
