kasper, I want to operate there (and out of there). I'm trying to convince myself that it's legal.
if you read CASA 292/14 it says that Jabiru-engined aircraft (all, not only 95.55) are banned from bankstown because they cannot glide free. That's the note at the bottom of my quote. It has nothing to do with 95.55
CASA have given a ruling about Jabiru-engined aircraft. (glide free and over 1000' unless takeoff/landing)
CAO 95.55 has a slightly differently worded rule - it says "must not be" rather than "is only permitted".
DrZoos, yourself, and others have given an interpretation of 95.55 that is the same as the Jabiru ruling: (glide free and over 1000' unless takeoff/landing).
My question is, if CASA have said glide free and over 1000' means no bankstown (see 292/14), how does this interpretation of 95.55 allow any 95.55 aircraft to go into bankstown?
or, could I ask anyone who has flown a RAAus aircraft into / out of Bankstown, how they interpret 95.55 7.1?
all I'm after is to convince myself that, armed with an RPL and controlled airspace endorsements, going to Bankstown/Moorabbin and renting a 24-rego Foxbat or Tecnam is legal. that would make the drive to go fly a lot shorter! (and once hired, going through the lane, and asking for clearance for Harbour Scenic One - again, flying over massive stretches of urban tiger country).
(I think it is, but your arguments are making me concerned that my interpretation which permits this, is incorrect.)
