    There's nothing tragic or sad about it IMHO. They pushed the limits and found them. Too bad so sad..

    That's my point. If he's about to turn base it's the reciprocal of his current heading +/- 10 degrees

    Off Topic: Wasn't it "Blah blah MBZ??" in the dim dark past Dazza...? On Topic: You'd think the flapdoodle driver would be able to ad-lib a circuit broadcast off his compass....

    The time limit was introduced owing to a certain poster reinserting offending material back into a post after it had been moderated. And then there was a run on a few posters removing content of messages when things weren't going their way. We might have to con the boss into making the edit window a bit longer to cover fixing typos and the like though. (He's smart enough to keep me out of changing those sorts of things.. )

    It'll depend on what and where they/we want to fly Tubz. We're still going to need an RAA cert to fly a postcode rego'd one. RPL does open up CTA for RAA aircraft types if that's what toots their horn.

    Hmmm.... been reading into the medicals side of it. You could lose your RAA cert medical quite easily if the austroads assessments are applied to the letter. The primary difference is self assessment and the RAA will allow conditional drivers' license conditions where the RPL doesn't (IMHO and at face value) Some links for anyone interested enough; http://www.austroads.com.au/images/stories/assessing_fitness_to_drive_2013.pdf and a quote from the amendment; (formatting is wierd as cut and paste isn't working correctly for some reason)

    Without having delved into every nook and cranny of the amendment Dazza, it appears that if you have a current RAA pilots cert with Nav, Pax etc., you are already qualified for a CASA recreational pilots license with same permissions. I've not looked properly into the medical side of it yet, nor of the registration requirements, but VH-BeerCaN is looking more and more appealing.

    But the altimeter didn't fail. It appears that the instrument tech wasn't capable of performing a calibration check on an otherwise functional altimeter and tagged it unservicable.

    "...handsome and lovable representation of all things good in the world." ( ) This was too much for the cottonwool commandos! "There is a duty of care to ensure that children don't risk injury by falling while laughing!" scowled the spokeswuss. "Get those posters off the trucks and threaten the children with fines, gaol terms and losing their houses." "Teehee, ouch, teehee" said....
