if i print out the rego certificate and put it in the plane and fly to work on Monday with the expired rego card

I'm not sure which branch of the Gestapo you're worried about, but I'm fairly sure the printed copy should suffice, as this gives traceability to the real registration.

Maybe a copy of the receipt as well...?

It's more the insurance cover I'm concerned about but I thought it would be the same as your car rego/insurance when they send the sticker in the mail. As long as you have a copy of the receipt in the car you are covered.

 

Thanks

 

Off to work now in the jab.

 

Safe flying

Factory built Savanah, another aircraft for sale (now can't be demonstrated or transferred), home builds, etc. Sue

What do you mean by this line of your post Sue? This is getting hard to follow.

 

 

[Brian F]

pays to complain on the forum, the RAA may deny involvement with this forum but its weird how 99% of public complaints gets dealt with very quickly once its made public.

Well bugger me! 2 working days after complaining here my registration payment has been processed, It really does work.

The Savannahs have been caught up in the mess too - see the previous page of this post or skip to the start here - http://www.recreationalflying.com/threads/the-effect-of-the-audit-dang.54171/page-6#post-265672 (and this is not the one we know, so that's at least 2). I have not heard of the Ibis issue being satisfactorily resolved - there was a whole thread on that - factory built, but now being given the option of down grading to 19- or grounded - some are in flying schools so they can't be used for what they were bought for. Schools and owners out of pocket.

 

Friend has his aircraft for sale - rego not renewed, having difficulty, therefore can't demonstrate and buyer can't fly away, or transfer, or be assured that it won't become an expensive ground anchor.

 

Others we know who have not heard, did not get a renewal, told what to do but having difficulty understanding or complying etc. We don't get out much and don't know many other owners, but we now know more grounded than flying.

Bugger, hope you can get it sorted mate.

Thats a cheap one they sell to soft wouldn't last long the good bolly is around $1680.

 

 

[pylon500]

good bolly is around $1680.

Bugger, need to get one soon and thought that a good price.

Yes pylon l checked them out as l need one also, my mate got one of these bollys last week and he had to get the dearer one as not as strong as he hoped that was according to the person at Bolly we spoke to , big jump in price they say you only get what you pay for.

 

 

[pylon500]

Would be a good reason to go back to Warp, I think still the best value for money.....

 

Shame about the regulation crap.

 

I still stand by my earlier comment, a prop is like a car tire, as long as it's the right size and pitch, it shouldn't matter who made it, they are ALL made to do the job....

 

 

[facthunter]

Do you believe in the "tooth Fairy" too? We are not talking about certified props. ( But YOU know that) Nev

 

 

[flyerme]

The price is due to size! I have been working with peter and craig at Bolly here in adelaide and if it was a 66" $1680,3 blade -68"2 blade$1280,composit with duratape on leading edge ,dynamicly balanced,extra $99 for spinner with prop purchase.

Depends on how long you want that tyre to last for it could go ban any time .

ok, first they requested I need to get an engineering order for the brolga prop or replace with the certified one.$1400 later done,

 

2 weeks later 2nd letter requesting photo's of all place cards including mtow. done

 

2 weeks later 3rd letter just received, now they want photo of hrs and landings and another photo signed and dated of underwing reg numbers?WTF

 

I have sent them in the first place signed dated photos of under wing and tail reg numbers signed and dated by cfi,lvl 2 including all info in the report /inspection and transfer info..this is starting to %^&& me off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! reg runs out next week.

 

could have told me all this 6 weeks back when they first sent a letter about the prop...very unprofessional guys.

 

I guess when I send out the next requested info ill receive another request for something else..feels like they don't want my plane rego'ed?

 

not happy JAN

 

 

[Guest ozzie]

Start sending them a bill for your time.

 

 

[Teckair]

My letter just asked for photos and did not mention signing and dating so I didn't do it. Flyerme, some how we have to get through to the people who give their proxies to people like PM that they are making a serious mistake. If I didn't own planes I would bale out of RAAus.

 

 

[flyerme]

received a reply.

 

Tim,

 

 

Sorry for the confusion.. We do have under wing and both sides of the aircraft photos on file – so that part is sorted.

 

We just need legible photos of the warning and Max take-off weight placards in place in the cockpit,(I admitt they were poor quality) plus your updated hours and landings.

 

Renewals are automated so you should receive one soon, however you can call ahead at any time to make an advance payment over the phone

 

and provide your updated hours and landings then.

 

The ex-owner just received the renewal papers. as the transfer is yet to be completed..

 

anyway Im So close I can almost feel the wind back on me noggin:plane:
