Guest davidh10 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Posting the above failed at least 6 times... then when I posted this one as just "test", both posts appeared! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turboplanner Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Have a look at the little counter up in the top RH corner when you post David, it's well out of sight I know - HF issue. The new software seems slower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest davidh10 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Have a look at the little counter up in the top RH corner when you post David, it's well out of sight I know - HF issue. The new software seems slower If by "little counter", you mean the animated activity indicator bar; It had hung there for about 20 seconds on each occasion before disappearing, but nothing happened and the editable post remained. It seems the browser is spending some time communicating with Google PlusOne and then FarceBook...maybe it is just a server side timeout that does not always survive delays in Google and Farcebook service integrations.

turboplanner Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 http://www.atsb.gov.au/media/4462266/ao-2011-100_final.pdf Pretty much sums it up - recency, decision making etc. Sad to see the late David Hunt's comments - who would know that he was to go soon also. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGL Fox Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Now that's a report, one day we may get reports on RAA accidents just like this one.. we live in hope.. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandit12 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Sad to see the late David Hunt's comments - who would know that he was to go soon also. This may seem like a petty thing, but it is also a little sad to see someone like David amended to "guest" by the software default. Perhaps when times are quiet admin might be able to change that to something a little more appropriate. Maybe "gone west" or another similar aviation related phrase. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 It would be hard to add anything to that report. Personally I have consistently questioned the validity of NIGHT VFR. It seems the CASA are at that point too. Being capable of flying on instruments, which is mentioned as an optional method of navigating , requires much more training and recency compliance.

Nev Yes, Part 61 will partially sort that out. I agree - you need lots of rigorous IF practice to safely fly NVMC where there are no reference lights. I seems likely that there will be a large exodus of pilots from holding NVMC once standards are tightened. A good thing too. pot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turboplanner Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Totally agree, I've never understood the logic of on the one hand requiring very strict training and recency for IFR, and on the other letting amateurs up at night as long as they promise they can see everything.
