  1. Hello robinsm, I only wish work behind the scenes made a noise, however these behind the scenes activities are silent and invisible. Notice how the politicians get on radio and TV well that is being seen and heard. I must inform you we are working with CASA and endeavouring to get help from the politicians. Hence we have been visiting a lot of pigeon holes and hurdles. KP.
  2. Isn't there an audit getting about which was done about something about 4 months ago. (Will stand being corrected on time) This audit cover RAAus governance. I have not heard of anyone discussing it. Is this audit stuck under the carpet? KP
  3. If it is not the above. Most of the time it is the good old, "Fingers Disease". KP
  4. KRvitor.. Changing a privacy policy at will is illegal, isn't it? We all signed the privacy policy which we know, then what we know has changed unannounced but as we are signed the original we must abide by this amended privacy policy. They think we are all stupid. To me looks like a pile of dictators. KP
  5. You are not too far from the truth, every time when things are moved the voting is always 4-3..when one sees that regularly -- comes in the category of a non functional board. One would expect an occasional unanimous or 5-2, 6-1 but never a constant 4-3. KP
  6. If they are hiding this what else is being hidden? I am a bit interested in the audits we do not hear about. KP
  7. Thinking about this current situation of RAAus handing over our privacy with our consent. I am wonder what others are thinking - to me the members are too quiet or have they given up? The other important issue - I am wondering are all audit results released? It is an important governance issue that members get a hear about the results of the audits. Being honest and transparent I think would cover the thoughts. We have all heard, "All done in secret". Could still be the case. KP
  8. Sorry I do not have his details. The CDs used to advertised in the Sport Mag however not seen them for ages. Bill used to live is Brisbane do not know where he lives now, may be still be there. His initial are CW Whitney. KP
  9. Great to hear you are considering constructing your own aircraft. You will find this a really rewarding experience as you will be learning about flight and the engineering of such - at the same time. Go to Oshkosh constructor haven. Pinch some tips and ideas from the Americans, do not have to uses all ideas only take what you feel comfortable with. What I do say consider Levil for your instruments. (engine monitoring and flight) Before you start get a grasp of the engineering principals as you will have a truck load of "experts" offering advice. Yes, they are every where, the best question you can ask them, "Lets go and have a look at your plane so I can see how you did that". Hmmmmm gone in the dust. A very good place to start Bill Whitney has a set of CD's, get the CD's and the notes to go with them, then you will be on the road to happiness. Bill is an engineer who has a passion and an understanding these small aircraft. KP
  10. What a good idea.. Needs better advertising. KP
  11. To me there is a clear breach by RAAus of a contract for privacy to the members. What is going on, is there warrant out to disenfranchise the members? We as members give RAAus our private information with the undertaking it is not to given to a third party, there is a contracted agreement regarding that information. KP
  12. old man emu. They may be a bit wanting in flight procedures .However they picked up on the lies. I would love to be a fly on the wall for the next round Glen Sterle is not going to back off, does like the lies. KP
  13. That legal advisor is one of the ones who advised RAAus when moving over to a Ltd. Company. That is all I need to say. I do wonder why the need for a legal advisor? Were they expecting something more complex and incriminating? The other point he would not have been free, who paid? KP
  14. See Monday evening, that is if the senate does not run out of time and postpone what has to be said. See where the comfort sits. KP
  15. On Monday 19/11/18.. RAAus is up before the Senate. Do not know:- *Time *Reason *Who will be answering the questions. I only know the senate appearance. Needs to have some research done. KP
  16. Watch out Spacesailor they will be onto you.. With:------(Where is your evidence?)???????????? KP
  17. Thank you Camel well said...I do like your bit where you say, you give a little bit extra because you like flying, How great is that. We need more like you. KP.
  18. Doug.. I had a thought, Now would these small flying schools be specialist in teaching the extra endorsements most people are looking for *Tail wheal *Low performance *Amphibians *Low level.. I can not imagine where there will be enough areas in the South East where those skills can be taught because there will be no country about where the practice exercises can be performed. Take this manoeuvre regarding these small flying schools looks like an attempt to move all operations to the South East where there is the big schools with their mini GA aircraft. To me this a complete disregard for where RAAus has come from. I do ask, If all goes to the South East and these specialist small schools have been closed. Who is going to teach these very specialist skills? KP
  19. $10 is not enough for me to squeal on my informants... KP
  20. As you say Bill, people will close the schools because of all the paper work. What needs not to be forgotten if things are made too hard people will give up and go and do other things or never start and go and do other things. Which ever way you go aviation will be shrinking in Australia and just as Australia needs more pilots for the commercial sector.. Guess what Australia will be getting foreign pilots who have had foreign training not Australian. There needs to be system which is not as complex and workable or Australia will be out of it. KP
  21. Some of these little solo schools the instructor is the CFI. Thruster88 you are saying it is OK so am I. However someone in their wisdom from head office thinks it is a good idea to wind back on these solo schools, that is what I am on about. KP
  22. Why has an instructor got to join a larger school? Why can't he stay where he is? People know the instructor and do not have to travel. Imagine people coming into Toowoomba from Charleville as Downunder suggests they will give up. Leave it all alone and promote the small establishments. KP
  23. Well stick consildation up their nose. KP
  24. There you have answered it, enforcement and control, that is the last thing we need. Part time instructors -- I think would be more inclined to be up to date as all things flying would not be a chore as these people would read the bulletins more diligently. KP
  25. F_T...Have a look at Mt.Isa what is there? Like the pollies taking everything out of the regional and rural areas and plonking it in the GSE. Like RAAus, to me, looks like things are gravitating to Canberra. Well that is a long way from Weipa. While we are up there what about Mareeba and Mt. Surprise? KP
