"Motzart? Oooh, I've heard about him..." interrupted the Riverland Lass , who'd recently been approached by air services for inclusion in the AIP as a flight condition. "He's the one that's going over to Asia but is too tight to fly commercial!:rolleyes: " The MachismoMentoratti :gleam:was a little intrigued :wtf:with how the Riverland lass could be seen as a flight condition, but none the less, his primary interest was that she was female, had a pulse and might be interested in a little ITZ action.....

Someone please clarify fuel for a Rotax 912ULS
ahlocks replied to Kyle Communications's topic in Engines and Props
The specs direct from the horses mouth. http://www.rotax-aircraft-engines.com/portaldata/5/dokus/d04851.pdf The document won't allow copy and paste unfortunately. It specifies the minimums as; 91 RON unleaded in a 912UL (80 hp) 95 RON unleaded in the 912ULS (100hp) d04851.pdf d04851.pdf d04851.pdf -

DBI, I do believe you are right. One of the more inspiring things I have witnessed recently was someone just tooling along overhead in a trike. They appeared to be just loping along on fast idle and sucking in the scenery. With the go fasts, it seems more like a game of three dimensional chess at times. Was I envious? My bloody oath.

What's the best way to ditch a microlight?
ahlocks replied to Kev's topic in Trikes and Microlight Aircraft Usergroup
Definitely worth reading and what an eye opener. Thanks Bill. -
He'd always had an inkling that he carried more inventory than usual (but less than some ) but had dismissed worrying as he knew that it was a matter of endurance (coincidental aviation term). It wasn't until the Bangholme bruiser :roar:complained that his pair had gone blue :head_hurts:, that Byron contemplated that something may be amiss...:play_ball:

Ahhhh, I see said the blind man. Thought you were debating the affirmative to paid scenics on an RAA ticket.. CAO95.55 is the example I'll use. As you know, it lists the parts of the act and regulation we have been permitted an exemption for. Sec 3.1(f) Gives an exemption to CAR 1998 reg 210 to advertise as far as; "flying training to qualify for a pilot standard specified in the RAA Operations Manual is concerned;" I'm not certain if, or how they would be getting around doing TIFs as joy flights or for the requirement to hold an AOC to do so. CASA, like any government department, is chockablock full of bureaucrats and toss pots and real easy to get negative toward. The problem is that there's just as many punters on our side of the fence trying to circumvent the limitations imposed on our recreational cert. or of a PPL for that matter. I'll keep digging to try find a better answer, but don't hold your breath waiting for it.....

Have a read up of the Civil Aviation Act 1988 where it spells out the requirements of an AOC. Pay particular attention to subdivision D Sect 28 where it spells out all the safety requirements for issue of an AOC. Regulation 210 states that you can't advertise unless you have an AOC. Ooops, there's those pesky safety system and training obligations again... Regulation 2, 7A (d&e) describes cost sharing quite clearly in order to prevent the clever dicks from doing creative math with the 'share' split. Contrary to all the bitching and moaning you will hear or read about the subject, it is to protect joe public from operators that do not have the appropriate training and safety systems offering commercial aviation services.
-
CASA's brief, believe it or not, is not to stop people making money. It is to ensure that the average joe citizen can sit at home watching telly and not get clouted by a wayward aeroplane and if average joe citizen wants to make use of civil aviation, he/she can have an expectation that the aircraft is built and maintained to a prescribed standard and that the pilot(s) are appropriately trained for the task. Exploiting a loose interpretation of cost sharing to run psuedo commercial ops using a private license or recreational cert is going to end in tears eventually.
-
If you were a properly approved flight training facility you might get away with it for a little while. Pretty sure RAA and CASA would eventually become interested in the TIF to continued training ratio though.

And thank you and Don for your hospitality at Camp(bloody)David. 'Twas good to meet you pair of rogues and the lovely Cazza for a cuppa.
