    Safety is the responsibility of each and every individual, no ifs not buts . We have all the tools in the world to assist us including "human factors" training to make considered and informed decisions. At the end of the day we make our own choices. (comply or break the rules and a few in between) CASA is the policeman. Do the crime do the time. My experiences with CASA checks have found them fair and reasonable.

    I believe there is an ALA at Beechworth Vic. Can some one confirm this for me and if so provide info as to who operates it so I can contact them as I would like to plan a trip to this region. Thanks Bruce

    Gday Ian, I saw in one of your earlier messages that you can laod "AirNav" charts into the unit. I current use a fully licenced version of "AirNav"vfr/for flight planning but not moving map. If we get the Rec flying gps and you load AirNav to it how do we keep the thing fully current (AirNav is updated twice a year). Also do we get the full suit of charts, ie , ERC low, VTC & VNC or is it only the WAC charts.? Regards Bruce

    Gday DB , a good guide is the ERSA. If you look under the remarks heading you will se a comment "This AD is a security controlled airport. " If there you need to display your ASIC. Regards BPN

    Well said farri, It is not compulsory to fly at above 5000ft. For those of us that have the appropriate training and a PPL the option is there if we wish to. In my view if your aircraft is equiped approriately and you have a proper understanding of the requiements together with good situational awareness a flight above 5000ft may actually be a safer option than under 5000 in certain circumstances. Just my thoughts Bruce.

    If my memory serves me correctly I think there was a magnificently restored C140 registered RAA in Broken Hill. i reckon if you contacted someone form YBHI aero club they would put you right. Regards Bruce

    Does any body out there use Air Nav VFR moving map in conjunction with an AV MAP EKP IV GPS. I know many who use it in conjunction with a Garmin GPS but cannot find an AV MAP user. If anybody does I would like to know how you get "G7toWIN" to talk to the AV MAP GPS in order to upload flight details ? Thanks BPN.

    Gday KAZ, I see youy use vrf nav with moving map. I have vrf nav and use it manually . I have aTecnam P92 echo super with glass **** pit EFIS and coupled to AV MAp EKP-IV GPS. Do you know how I can use moving map (VRF NAV) through this GPS. I have not been able to find any one who uses it through this type of GPS. Plenty of Garmin users ok. You can contact me on [email protected]. Regards Bruce.
