    It's NOT worth it. Nev

    If you are the sort of person that Panics get another hobby and save money and time. Flying is not forgiving enough for you. Nev

    The thread starter HERE Is "VFR into IMC".. Good subject for consideration and an opportunity to LEARN. Nev

    RAAus DID HF for everybody. CASA directed. Wasn't handled well. Plenty of crusty old Barstewards thought it was BS. Needs to be a constant up dated thing. CASA didn't want it considered in Investigations though (Guess why) Insurance companies gave credits for it.(Wisely) Another failed opportunity. Nev

    I don't think "Mr Cessna" would suggest it's use in other than "certain" Cessna's either. ( Liability) Instant IMC would be very rare. There's usually plenty of warning Also Under the hood (without cheating) is a very good way (SAFE , LEGAL & Accepted) to train for the IMC situation . Nev

    It's informative to look up what the Purpose of a Coronial Inquest is. It's quite specific. Also what qualifications a Coroner must have. Nev

    You won't achieve Justice often and perhaps not even the proper application of the LAW. The Richest Lawyers work for the CROOKS. Nev

    Coronial Inquests are NOT places where people should be, or have to be, using Lawyers Nev

    Who is a LEGAL Expert? The rest are uselessly speculating. The recent CBUS case (political) Just FINED the "Organisation " Millions of dollars". That was MEMBERS FUNDS. . RAAus should have Indemnity insurance for their Officers of some kind. No one in their right mind would do the Job without it . The Coroner is involved when some one dies to look into the cause of the death. That was the plane losing control and descending at a high Vertical speed probably due to Icing and spatial disorientation. No one forced the Pilot to fly that day. Coroners are often not full bottle on aircraft or medical etc. One said Motorbikes would be safer IF they didn't lean over so much. Nev

    Engine vibration is destructive also. All these senders are quite Unreliable. It's a harsh environment for them Nev

    Was that Helpful? It's not too big a hope that Members do feel they have a stake in the RAAus continuing to exist. . IF it doesn't what's next? Warbirds are in a similar position regarding the extent of possible liability. IF it's too high It's just NOT affordable, by Normal people. Nev

    That could be ONE interpretation. I wonder what he LEGAL interpretation of THAT is.? I looked it up. Quite nebulous. You are entitled to Be told the Limits of your liability as a Member. Nev

    It DID go to the Cessna POH which would be presumptuous to apply Carte Blanche. Planes have different Stability Parameters. A more "Neutral" plane is better in turbulence and the spiral situation. Nev

    The Thread title IS VFR into IMC. Nev
  15. facthunter
    Does everybody fly Cessna High wings? Nev
  16. facthunter
    IF the ball is not centred you will feel a sideways force in your seat. It's unbalanced flight. (skidding). Nev
  17. facthunter
    Ground to Tower also. SMC Towers don't fly. Nev
  18. facthunter
    ICAN would be obsolete OK in an old Warbird I guess for looks. ( Single pointer) Based on a different standard atmosphere Same as the Old Nickel plated Brass Prayer wheel. I'd have one of those somewhere. Nev

    It's not that easy to move around in an upside down Plane or get out of the doors and windows. . IF you're waiting because others are in the way you might as well phone people.. It's instinctive. It wasn't burning inside. Nev

    IF you haven't done any In cloud flying then do some (under the hood. supervised ) and then return to the conversation My post above about not being able to tell where DOWN IS, is the crux of the matter. In a Basic simulator you don't experience the disorientating forces you do in REAL situation. If you have an autopilot use that. IT doesn't KNOW it's in cloud. Go into a COMPLETELY dark room and turn around about four times. . Recovery from a Spiral has to be quickly executed. (with ailerons) because SPEED is building up fast and your instinct is to pull the stick back. Nev

    Is NOTHING sacred? Nev
  22. facthunter
    A boomerang is a flying wing but has a bit of a Yaw PROBLEM would many of these things FLY if you threw them out of a plane?. Nev
  23. facthunter
    Everyone thinks they will always know which way "DOWN" is . Not so. Nev
  24. facthunter
    They had fire hoses on it quickly, Canadians don't panic easily. They are cooler than most People. They are even COOL on Trump. Nev

    Baby It's COLD outside. Nev
