Thanks for the update Keith. What A/C Register will the aircraft operating under the ELAAA be using?

We were doing so well, however the registration register has gone back to the drawing board. The change of CASA directors has given us more work however no one has ever drowned in their own sweat. as soon as there is a clear path ahead I will let everyone know.

No one wants to step outside the square.

Hi Mike

It looks like initial rego starts then $220 every two years for CofA (may be certificate of airworthiness and processing of BFR is $220- I guess plus the instructor flight cost. Maybe not much cheaper than RAA in the end?

Hi Mike, will be good to see what they finally end up with. I am sure they are trying to make it as light on the pocket as possible. Will be Good to have some choice and MAY even have 750kg before RAAus.

Cheers Mike

First I've heard of this.

 

Is Casa likely to approve another organisation (other than RAAus) to administer LSA flying and maintenance in Aus.

 

Are you definitely expecting approval in the future, or hoping you get approval.

 

Interesting.

The answer to your questions is, "Yes" x 2.

As we speak - the paper work is with CASA and is getting a favourable response.

 

The other part of ELAAA we will be administering the small end of non commercial helicopters.

Apologies if I've missed this already but are ELAAA going to cater for the needs of Microlights?

Thank you Neil,

They were good words of encouragement. We will not be caught lying however if a non truth get out please let us know quick as it will be a case of an incorrect interpretation.

 

We are progressing along slowly however the helicopters are the game changer.

Good Morning Dinga.

The answer to your question.

 

At the moment it is:- "No", as people do have a choice.

 

There are two organisations administering Microlights:- *RAAus and HGFA.

Good Morning ave8rr.. We are batting for 760kg. The extra 10kg will allow extra freedoms and compliances.

We are back on the drawing board with that one the good news, not all lights are out, there is hope, however it is fun times.

Thanks Keith,

 

Yes, quite correct of course however, I don't believe either really have the interests of Microlights at heart, IMHO of course.

 

Thanks anyway.

A little bit of drum beating we are still working away developing ELAAA will be exciting times ahead -- all coming together slowly.

 

Will keep every one informed as to our progress.

Slowly is the operative word. If you can get to Emu Park on 13 May, you could talk to Lee Ungerman who is the CASA rep for ultralights. He will be doing a presentation there from 0930hrs. Sadly it is doubtful that I can make it there.

Speaking of the weight change

 

If you go to

 

https://www.casa.gov.au/rules-and-regulations/standard-page/rule-development-projects

 

MS 99/04 - Increase in ultralight aeroplane maximum take-off weight limit

 

This project is now closed it says and not active...so its either done and dusted as far as CASA is concerned and its a yes or someone is pissing in our pockets......what is the latest you know of with the weight increase application with CASA

What makes you think he is interested in anything the members of RAAus have to say.
