    SDQDI... How is good knowledge be called regulation? How can reading learning be substituted for good dexterity teaching. You will have to demonstrate that to me. Well it could be interpreted as regulation that a bolt is either left hand or right hand thread so in that mechanical regulation? KP

    Bit of news for you Sue I do not align myself with anyone I have been through a few mills. A bit of justification - the simple thing of removing and replacing spark plugs some people make a real meal of that, leaking O rings just a half a turn tighter will fix it get rid of that rot, changing a tyre-- I am onto about demonstrating those simple things. There are a lot of people who need that little help just to give then confidence yes there are a lot about. Being able to indentify different situations types of cracking, perishing, crystallising and oxidisation, what about the correct process of lock wiring. The other interesting point most of those people would only be phone call away to get help. A day at Goondiwindi could be arranged that will not be a days drive. I would like to know how this on line L1 will cover these dexterity subjects, just a demonstration would be good and I will shut up for ever so till then I will keep harping on. KP

    Definitions - do not teach people what to look for. What I am on about is our scheduled, programmed and routine maintenance for our small aircraft. What to look for at these service intervals what the pending failures look like. Definitions and reading are not a good guide, one has to have the basic knowledge in the first place. Got to teach this knowledge. The terms like "Line Maintenance" makes it all look and sound so fancy. KP

    happyflyer.. "Line Maintenance" is for airlines not us fellows with our little planes. "Line Maintenance" is where if an airliner has some spare time between trips and little bits can serviced at that moment that is when it happens. So "Line Maintenance" has nothing to do with us. So how did "Line Maintenance" get into this equation? KP.

    chrisag... That is my case for a practical section and I have been yapping on about it for about 3 years, "That is a good idea I will look into it" That where it ends. It is proper debacle. KP

    Bill as of 01/02/2017 our L1 endorsement will fall off our certificates and to get it back those who want it will have to do this on line questionnaire. I have grave doubts how good this course is, as there is no practical component. I am stuck here, how can a course which needs dexterity skills and none of these skills are being assessed. Stay posted as to the L2 outcome, could prove interesting. As for the L4 CASA has a big say in that one. See how RAAus gets on when they try and meddle with that one. KP

    I am gobbed smacked. Saying you let the members down. The poor fellow must not have had even part of his finger on the pulse. They are the sort of people who voted the constitution up. Fancy CCing every man and dog trying to embarrass you, the only one who should be embarrassed is old mate for being so out of touch. What will a person like that go with board duties? I am just sitting back and having a grin at how it is all unfolding and you are in the box seat to say I told you so. Catch up one day with you fellows. I am stuck with academic stuff at the moment. KP

    Frank something was arranged/entered into at the board meeting in Bundaberg and not all the board was agreeing, I am aware two were quite hostile. The other interesting point Don Ramsay was relentless in wishing the constitution a success. Then when it was successful he resigned, most people will stay and enjoy the fruits of their labour. So back in October I was told the pending direction was not a good decision. There must be a lot of gullible sheeple in RAAus. KP.

    How did you dream that up ColJones.?? KP

    Just for interest add #38 Rod and #39TK58 to Aerochute Kev's post what is the answer. KP
  11. Keith Page
    Well Aerochute Kev.... I believe you are 100% correct. Yes it will cost resubmit to CASA as it will be a new document. The three documents namely *Constitution *Tech Manual *Ops Manual will all have the same treatment, "Too Expensive to Resubmit" because that will be a waste of money. That has what has been said on this forum many times. For those who have some time which can used to find more inconsistencies there will be few more hidden about manuals. I do wonder why all the secrecy when writing and formulating. CASA can put out a NPRM. I do like the line "Wishful Thinking". KP

    Bill, I will play a card which I have never played on this forum. I have tried other alternatives and I received the same response as Frank. What you have mentioned above, is why I am doing what I am doing now. That is how much I will reveal for the moment. You are so very accurate in saying that this is to affordable flying. The flying is getting further and further away from affordability and the actions are disguised as "it is for safety" and CASA is directing the move I say no it is an over kill by RAAus. I would not be able to live with myself if an organisation collapsed because of the incorrectly made decisions. Read what Frank has said "He tried but was ignored". Frank is vary astute when making decisions as he would had done some research into the subject. He dose not shoot from the hip. KP

    Hello Frank, They must think the average RAAus member is stupid to try to put that stuff down our necks. Still boggles my mind how something can effectively be taught in from of a computer screen. I will go along with, academic endeavours may be - however subjects which need manual demonstrations I am no for that one. Regarding the L1 course there are people who need to ask questions to verify their though process it is those people who need help in certain areas so they will not fall through the cracks. As it is structured the learning outcome will not be good. KP

    Yes just a simple case of reading to reply not reading to understand, nothing else. What has my mind boggled ---- which equation was used so it could be said 90% of the members were in favour. Ummmmmmmm???????. I think there were a few cubed routes multiplied by square routes the is a way to get a half a dozen quickly up to a few thousand. KP.

    Little interest for you Frankus.. Have a personal enquiry and broaden your terms of reference to what you have suggested above. Confirm where the individuals collected/gathered/caused to receive the information. Who collected/gathered/caused to receive this information you will be surprised as to the origin. KP

    No Don........ The answer is answered in docjel's post.... the post needed to be read to be understood. Not read to make comment. I will write the answer for you.. Just because one goes for a yearly full medical is not a guarantee will they make it through till next year the answer is a big fat "no" as no one can see what is around a corner. All what the post said. KP
  17. Keith Page
    Thank you Docjell, that was a great post that will leave a few looking for answers. As you said - what is around the corner can not predicted with out history, warning signs, could be the answer. KP

    Yes "vacated" indicates the runway is empty of your aircraft.. "Clear" is used by the towers "Clear to land" "Clear to take off" or communication on the ground e.g. "Yes you are clear go to taxi way" indicating you as a pilot are aware of another aircraft is operating on the ground as well or coming into land. KP.

    As yet no one has said here, If you are stuck for words, just speak simple English. (That was in a safety brief I saw some where). KP.

    Do not feel guilty about saying things wrong, I fly in and out of regional airport there is not a day passes that a Qantas pilot does not make a stuff up yep Qantas. Virgin are a little less frequent however they are on the list for stuff ups as well. DO NOT FEAL GUILTY. KP

    Just relax and do not get embarrassed with a pause while you think. The other "Do not rattle things off like a machine gun" most people find that hard to understand. Just consider what the others want to know from you and some - their hearing is on the wain. Think and slow will be absolutely excellent, those who think you are a bit slow they can bite their ask at least you are being clear......... AND....... Practice as you drive is an excellent practicing technique. All the best, KP.

    You are a breath of fresh air, education and culture training. (Great to see.) I will add more - we need face to face education not news letters as Don is saying. The case being, with reading one (student) can not always understand the gist of the exercise however with a presenter, the presenter can verify that the correct message is getting out to the pilots. I am advocating sitting down face to face and getting class involvement presenting that education will develop a culture people will remember and it will go viral. People (students) will give up when there is only reading. What I have found when training , people do have to ask questions to confirm and verify their thought track. The other important aspect confirm that the answer has answered the question. Quite often the question we here is not the information you are being asked, just us being humans. When one has achieved that -- there is your safety -- it is just a by product. So simple not SAFETY,SAFETY,SAFETY,SAFETY,SAFETY,SAFETY. KP

    Did not take them long, Eh Frank. KP

    As I said in a previous post I am not contributing any more to these posts. It was a case of reading to reply not a case of reading to understand. I have enough to keep my self busy other than waste my time here. Trying to explain points. KP.

    See you all later I am gone. KP
