True, CASA's priorities for safety promotion are listed here Safety promotion sponsorship program | Civil Aviation Safety Authority (casa.gov.au) They seem to think that LOC-I is not an issue worth addressing. Back when I started instructing (part-time) many years ago other instructors palmed off their advanced stall lessons in the Cessna 150 to me. These days I do a lot of spin endorsements for flight instructor trainees for several flight schools. Too many cannot tell me the correct technique to recover from a stall in a turn. (I also teach some to be spin and aerobatic flight instructors plus UPRT.)

Same money elsewhere will get a Piper Arrow dual. Seems like he doesn’t like to do much work.

Someone will have to ring Oasis again and ask.

It does seem to be the right rate for a Piper PA-28.

You spoke to them, not me. I guess that he simply answered the question that you asked.

NOPE. At Moorabbin a Sling 2 is $364 to 368 dual. Foxbat $328 dual. Also a Jabiru and Gazelle for training there.

Same here, new transponder with ADSB-out so fitted a Ping although I could’ve retained the SkyEcho. Of course, I use AvPlan. it works well.

Yes indeed. I lived in Wyoming USA for several years and flew a 172 (along with other types) from an airfield at 6500 ft elevation with summer temperatures up to 30 deg C. Illuminating.

THE RIGHT WAY UP DOWNUNDER! with Rich Stowell BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA 28 JUNE - 2 JULY 2024

Rich will be hosted by Strike Aviation Training | Learn to Fly at Caboolture Airfield from 28th June until 2nd July. I will post the link to the webpage with details when I get it.

Me too, I left after Andrew’s display in the Extra - the heat affected his performance too. Even then it took ages to get out of the car park. Quite a few people there, especially with that weather, so they would’ve been happy with their publicity. I would’ve flown in if the weather was better and I’d have offered red750 a seat.

I heard a rumour that Rich Stowell is visiting Australia soon for some seminars and flight training.

Someone happened to catch it on video.

I don't see any of that in the report? Nowhere do I see a mod to the stick grip however there is mention that harness may restrain positioning of the stick.
