    I do not know that you know.. Some of these home built aircraft are complex. I know of one (19reg) its electronics was way up in the complexity stakes.A great deal of the electronics which is in GA started life in the home builds. After the testing it went on to the GA life with paper work, certificates and the magic TSO, still the same animal.... BUT... 10 x the original cost. KP

    "Duty of care" That is OK however how do you get around the situation after some of these people have been told many times and still they can not comprehend.We run out of breath repeating the dialogue, what next. KP.

    Put a process in place where people will be responsible for their own actions, problem solved. The crux of the matter people will not put up their hand and take the blame by them selves they will want to wriggle out of it and blame someone else. As kids when we fell out of a tree, we planned not to that again do it some other way BUT now they blame whoever planted that tree. KP

    Young ones being encouraged....NONE.The rigmarole which one has to go through is unbelievable. All in the name of this so called "safety", "safety","safety". There is nowhere that this simple formula is displayed.. good culture + procedure + process=safety. In this situation good culture is the correct construction that is not being satisfied till all is correct.(construction) KP

    That is far removed from what I am saying.Like now I will explain this word for word. When I find some contentious issues and or subjects, I will not explain the case word for word., I will show you the way to get to the information and you can use your own words for the interpretation. That removes me from the old issue of "He said". As for ELAAA when it is operational I will explain the requested information word for word. KP

    That is about correct. Charge the maximum which industry will tolerate and there is the price.KP.

    Hello Happyflyer I am back from doing some work.I need to explain myself here and by the looks of things I have been misunderstood. The number of times people ask me to spell the situation out word for word I must hasten to add, it will not be prudent of me to answer in a manner as such, word for word. However I do present very good tracks to follow to gather this information for ones self. i.e. Ones owns research and interpretation. KP

    Why not get the rail up and running?Only a bit of planning needed. Australia was developed on rail produce was taken to market as well. KP

    No planes flying equal no accidents -- SAME AS -- No cars on the road equal no deaths.Well ban everything and rap people in cotton wool. Then they will suffocate in the cotton wool. Come on people use our head a little we do not need minders at every corner. KP

    That is a wonderful idea as great deal of home builders are so talented they are more interested in getting things correct than the normal ego jockeys about the place.The other aspect of the home builders nothing happens until there has been a pile of research gone into the project. With this type of thinking we are getting away from engineered learning.. i.e. all doing the same thing as they all have been taught the same way. (Think) KP

    You are on to it Jim. Why go and reinvent the wheel? Look over the ditch yep they are doing things not too far wrong. I have to confess that I have had a very good look at their systems, *maintenance *operations *administration. Why not go have a chat with our NZ brothers and sisters and glean what they are doing, will save a lot of grief. While you are there ask:- *can this be done better? *would you do this again? *are you completely happy with this? My honest view over here, the egos are in the way and they so terrified some jobs might go. i.e. CASA & RAAus. Have Part149 and Part103 should be implemented simultaneously and with that situation aviation in Australia will be in a dawning of new era. Best thing in the world learn from someone else's successes, achievements and mistakes, quite simple. KP

    But!!! why have we all got to have a robust discussion about it all -- then in two years something is gunna happen, could.Why not listen and have something on the way of being correct first up? This micro managing behind closed doors will never work. KP

    What qualification do you award the people who work on engines and airframes in the Jabiru factory.? Those people can not be forgotten as that is where the knowledge is based. KP
  16. Keith Page
    You know there are presenters about who can deliver that subject. Teaching all the requirements and even the manual aspects as well.Now wait for it -- the 3 day Jabiru factory maintenance and routine inspection familiarisation run by the factory is not recognised come on give me a break. Has me astounded why all the micro management. AUF days and early days RAAus that knowledge was handed out by these presenters who are CFI and PE qualified. Now all of a sudden it has to be micro managed and do not pull the one, "CASA requirements" it is not you know. It is "Micro Management" from RAAus management. KP
  17. Keith Page
    No these days the management is out playing police people, help when one is in trouble is no-existent.As I said in post #24 watch out. That old saying "Careful of what you wish for". KP

    kgwilson that new L1 is an absolute embarrassment. Nothing of mechanical importance in it mostly legislation. It is a good rule before we work on anything get the manufactures manuals they have the specks we have to work with. I never forget the day this mechanic was helping me with a gear box. He was about 66 at the time and he had a special desk sitting beside his work bench on it was the workshop manual with the specs, he measure each component before it was placed together the manual was covered with a special bit of plastic. This old mechanic never had a recall from faulty workmanship but he was slow. That was a very good lesson and still with me today. KP.

    If this is pursued with vigour, watch out as what is next.Just a view. KP.

    This conspiracy thing gets a good going over these days, when one gets out and does some thinking and research and starts asking questions.The line of questioning comes under the term of "Conspiracy". Normally how loud "Conspiracy" is yelled is how close to the target one is. I think no one is out to get me but a lot would like me to shut up however there is no hope of that. I will keep on thinking and researching. I twigged to the missing posts when Frank made comment to you and I could not see what it was about. Just to put your mind at rest I do agree with a great deal of Frank's views. KP.

    Thank you sdqdi, I went in and had a look and sure enough there was an ignore on poor old jetjr. How it got there do not have a clew. So now things are back to normal. KP.
  22. Keith Page
    Thank you for that, I have not put an ignore on him BUT this electronic age is not fool proof as weird things happen at times, so I have to apologise to jetjr.I will look into the issue now brace yourself any thing could happen. thank you again. KP

    Regarding jetjr I am suspicious that jetjr is hiding his posts from me just wonder why??? I see Frank is very suspicious as well as Frank in his post #108 makes reference to jetjr wonder who he is this in jetjr post #107 which I can not see. What is in jetjr post #107? jetjr replies to Frank in #109 which I can not see then Frank replies in #110. All a mystery and I am very suspicious to the honesty. KP

    As I read it "Only a witch hunt".. CASA has better things to do.. CASA needs to keep an eye on the tertiary implications. KP

    Oh!.....Bill.....I have to give you a ditto for that one. No truer words typed. KP
