    • at about 4 minutes flight time, the pilot conducted a series of manoeuvres including steep turns, steep climbs and descents, manoeuvres that were consistent with negative g3] and yawing4] the aircraft left and right
       
       
    • after about 6 minutes flight time, and after a second series of yawing and other manoeuvres that were consistent with negative g, the engine power momentarily reduced before recovering
       
       

     

     

     

    Looks like they never changed their attitudes

  1. Commenter: "The onus is on the pilot to check the plane before each flight to make sure everything is working properly, and to either not fly it until it's repaired or to commence repairs themselves if able to do so. Therefore, portioning blame onto the pilot is quite acceptable as he either didn't perform these checks or ignored potential safety issues."

    My response: "So.....is it normal that your icy cool stare at a piece of complex machinery just scares it into submission and makes it keep working forever?"

    FFS is this guy serious, some of these guys seriously need a smack in the mouth. And to think Journalisim is a University Degree. I think my three year old son could do better.

  2. I just google earthed the airport as I have never been there. How on earth did any councillor in their right mind approve the development of that shopping centre. FFS the piano keys of runway 35 are level with a carpark and if you were using 17 what hope would you have in the event of a engine failure. These people need to become criminally liable for their decisions. Given that it's been there since 1921 I'm sure it was there first.

  3. Interesting that Yen gets a tap on the shoulder and effectively please don't for that again (a measured response in my opinion) ...Yet 'motorkite dreaming' appears on national TV for 6 weeks with - no matter how you try and defend as fun- multiple blatant breaches of pretty much anything you could consider apropriate or legal flying ...

     

    I know CASA are not the fastest at prosecuting but I am really hoping to hear REPORTS of the RAAus action against them in due course

    I don't think they got off Scott free
