  1. i didn't think i said anything wrong but you start hurling insults. whats the point of a forum if you can't say anything.
  2. that jabiru had skylights above the pilot which i hadn't seen on other jabs, but who would look up climbing out . straight ahead and scanning side to side is the normal thing isn't it.
  3. its not hard to miss a call . did the cessna call inbound when the other pilot was on awis channell or preoccupied with something else. did everyone make all the calls.
  4. I heard the Cessna was in the circuit and the jab was climbing and clipped the Cessna's tail .
  5. 100 % true and documented. the instructor is also a lame and he was able to do it because of something to do with having a type certificate . its a casa rule that raa comply with. tecnam p92.
  6. There are ga flight school planes that have been running on condition for 20 years plus.
  7. yes. the news report said it was gear down.
  8. Raaus aircraft with a type certificate can run on condition in a flying school. I have seen it first hand. 912 was changed out at 3600 hrs and it was still passing all checks then. The owner told me he was able to do it because it was type certified. Very confusing.
  9. All good if you can understand what they are saying. There seem to be a lot of aircraft with bad radios out there.
  10. i tried to post a link to the channel 9 news wouldn't work though.
  11. sounds like he was ready for it anyway. will he sell the airframe or buy another engine.
  12. well i am right i just found the old news story. same rego. bugger.
  13. yes. the rego numbers are available on this thread. i am pretty sure its the plane i am thinking of but i might be wrong.
  14. just interested if it was a jabiru i knew thats all. so it is relevant to me.
  15. was that the jab that lost the oil filter and flipped nose over in a paddock
  16. he is showing up online now, thats a relief. such a terrible tragedy. 3 people that won't be going home tonight.
  17. anyone heard from skippy. isn't that his area.
  18. school is probably not the right word. as far as i know a thruster is still certified which means you can train in them. might pay to have a talk to raaus i guess.
  19. Yes don, and it was a nice one too. I put the ad up for someone else . He wants to set up a small auf type training school. Great idea if it happens. The xairs are great but not certified.
  20. cash buyer. nsw preferred but will travel elsewere for the right aircraft.
  21. What about wife that discovers what you spent on flying.
  22. Raaus can be vague about things. My first xair was 554 kg mtow. When I sold it they changed it to 450 kg. The second xair was 544 kg and when I went to transfer they rang up and said that aircraft must be 450 kg now. I said cancel the registration and I will part out the aircraft. I did not want a dual control single seater. Then they offered me 490 kg which I accepted. So where do all the other aircraft stand that were reduced to 450 kg.

    Fiat G.46

    nice looking machine
  24. Referring to my last post.I shouldn't blame raaus it's probably more to do with evolution than them. Most people want to go faster and further,I understand that. It's just a pity there is no place for the lower end.
