  1. But we get no choices, don’t join and you don’t fly aircraft in this Aviation sector. If I had my choice I would not be in it at all, because my experiences have not been convivial with RAA. The way I feel right now, is do what i did in South Africa 15 years ago, bought a BMW1200GS Bike, stored it there, flew over every year for 6 years, traveled around for 4-6 weeks, put in storage come home, rinse and repeat🤩 Right now I would go to the U.S. buy an FAA FAR Part 103 plane, store it there and visit twice a year, visit Air Venture etc, fly the wings off it. NO RAA, NO licence, NO bullsh1t, Rinse and repeat, until I die , spending the inheritance. 🤩 I don’t really need RAA, as can go VH rego, class 5 medical, with SAAA and fly away, happy days 👍👍
  2. All they need to do is notify basically that circumstances are pending until final determination is made. No legal discussion can be made, under the circumstances. But to simply say nothing at all, is an insult to the members, shareholder, stakeholders of the organisation.
  3. ¡CEO told me last week, they will get around to it shortly. Snow jobbing a Coroner does not go well, when the relevant people get caught.
  4. We all stand to learn……
  5. Wonder what effect that has, on the RAA insurance policy?
  6. Regardless of who says what, the buck will stop at the end of it all, with whatever happens. Until then we can all cast our opinions, for what they are worth, in the meantime, right or wrong…….
  7. Different to what a Lawyer said to me, personal friend on a phone call. So I will just hurry up, and wait 😁
  8. Alleged withholding of evidence or telling lies to a Coronial Inquest is viewed very seriously, and an insurance company could invalidate a policy covering the organisation involved, and the people in it.
  9. Does not to you, but it will to others 🤢
  10. The bill so far is $400,000 and climbing 🤢
  11. There is never any fairness or honesty in any part of the legal system in Australia. It’s all about money and how much it costs. Human Beings, behaving at their finest………
  12. But there ARE battle plans being made by organisations who know more than us. Given existing imposed legal costs, money has to be found, that people don’t have. Because the actions of some will invalidate any insurance policies, being paid out. Regardless of DPP actions, some people will suffer major loss, then comes civil action possibilities, too. Either way, it’s a sad day for RAAus…….
  13. Well we wait and see what happens next
  14. That interpretation was given to me, that it WILL happen and organisations are planning for it to happen.
  15. Well I asked for an update on the current standing of the organisation, given the outcome of the Coroners report on th Jabiru crash near Mt Beauty.? I was told some information should be forthcoming soon. Something has to give, I would allege that some people in the RAA hierarchy past and present stand to possibly lose their houses, to cover increasing legal charges. I am told by several in phone calls I have received, Ita a looming horror story, if the potential outcome is correct. The Coroner has apparently instructed the DPP to lay charges. Sad days ahead if all this is correct 🤢
  16. She sent me a copy of the Constitution, too.
  17. I am not a member? I am not a shareholder? RAAus CEO says I am a STAKEHOLDER in an email she sent me. Go figure…….
  18. Just my useless opinion here. The technology in these aircraft is too overwhelming for many older students, to come to grips with. Glass Cockpits should be an endorsement only, not a training platform. Only fixed pitch props as well. Hiding in my bomb shelter!
  19. Recently I have fielded a flurry of phone calls that tell me, that under the impending circumstance we are now been subject to, the pathway exists to transfer to VH rego, do the Class 5 medical (that RAAus won’t recognise) go RPL and do Maintenance under SAAA. Since I have been in SAAA for 4 years, I don’t have to join. Apparently there will be a lot of discussion, at their Wentworth Fly In.
  20. In actual fact RAAus are in breach of the Constitution because They have not involved members or shareholders by updating them via a communiqué relating to the current progress of the legal action under discussion at this time. I was given this information via a phone call from a person who has intense knowledge on the subject.
  21. illegal? Is a sick bird 🤩
  22. Nothing is illegal unless you get caught doing it. Only when you get caught and the illegality is discovered? THEN you face the music. As it was said to me on phone last night, you can fly an unregistered plane any time you like, the plane itself does not care if it’s not registered, it will still fly just the same, regardless 🤩
  23. Apart from the current investigation, there are another two investigations to run and apparently false information was given in one of those also, so unfortunately it’s not looking very good at RAA , considering there will be civil actions against them as well that have been somewhat detailed already. Understand that as a result of cover-ups there will probably be NO insurance coverage for RAA, under the terms and conditions of the PDS which outlines the insurance companies terms and conditions of that policy. Just imagine if I personally tried to cover up something in an RAA investigation with my own aircraft, and what the results could be from that. I’m sure. that I would pay a price for it. There are sad days ahead……..
