WestCoast Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 Sebring Aviation in Florida conduct regular Rotax maintenance training courses each year and I am wondering if anything similar is available or planned for Australia? I contacted Bert Floods quite a long time ago regarding this but nothing has ever eventuated. Is anyone else out there interested in this type of course? Dave
Guest pelorus32 Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 Dave, we've got a bucketload of Rotax users in this country. I wonder would the guys from the US like to come here and run a course(s)? I'd be happy to work with you on that and to promote it. Regards Mike
airangel Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 Airangel I for one would be a starter for a good intensive program.
WestCoast Posted August 29, 2008 Author Posted August 29, 2008 Does anyone know if Bert Floods have run a course like this in the past? I would be prepared to fly to Melbourne in order to attend.......sure is closer than Florida. Here is the schedule for Sebring.

airangel Posted August 29, 2008 Posted August 29, 2008 Rotax maintenance course Would it be an economic proposition for Bert Flood To run a maintenance course as the only Rotax agent in Aust.
Guest ozzie Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Has anyone considered the rebuild DVDs that California Power Systems Airwolf have to offer. http://www.rotaxparts.net/scripts/prodList.asp?idCategory=42
Kev Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Dave, The HGFA are currently running a series of courses (starting Monday 21 Oct) to certify inspectors, for the purpose of conducting Annual Inspections on trikes - both primary category and LSA. There will follow at some time in the not too distant future, a series of maintenance courses, run in conjunction with BertFlood, to certify maintenance personnel around the country. The idea is to enable owners to be able to either carry out their own maintenance, or have access to somebody who is both competent and qualified. This will also apply to both primary category and LSA. Hope this helps. Fly Safely Kev.
