  1. 19 registered, legally you built it, you take responsibility for it, you do what you like., but remember, if it stuffs up, its your responsibility, no one elses.
  2. Tony Lamarra is in Italy for another few weeks. Very approachable. Owns a lot of hangerage at Goulburn. I rent off him, no problems.
  3. nope
  4. already had one engine out in my 582 through my own fault. Doesn't seem to happen as often as j.... though.
  5. my 582 is running fine...just sayin.
  6. Yep, the grace spitfire. (she is a local southern tablelands girl from way back.) Beautiful aircraft.
  7. Stuff it, if RAA falls over and CASA don't pick up the Tab then they had better get a lot of cops in the air because I suspect the unregistered aircraft count will go through the roof....just sayin"
  8. "we're the government, we're here to help you...?!!!
  9. So you would penalise those that may become flyers to support us. I thought the idea of RECREATIONAL was to have fun for all, not have others pay for our pleasure. Read the post. Disagree.
  10. You have to be kidding, that's how you kill an organisation such as RAA stone dead. After all we pay rego fees, certificate (membership ) fees, and we also pay to camp under wing albeit that payment goes to the local council.
  11. So.......NZers mate with model aircraft, bit of wooly thinking there. Mmmmmm...glow plugs to keep them warm....
  12. What is MAAAA?
  13. Unfortunately negative posts, and attitudes tend to become self fulfilling. The more that bitch about NATFLY, the less that go, then the more bitch about poor attendance, less go etc. If that's what you want, go for it. I for one, enjoy the company of fellow flyers, whether thewy fly fast or slow. I love flying of any type. Nay sayers are starting to give me the s..ts. The sparse positive input is refreshing. If you don't like ewho we are, what we do, how fast you go, where you can go, then change it, don't winge about it. Get off your ar..s and positively do something about it instead off trying to pull everyone down!!! Flame me, I don't care.
  14. I would, and have every other year but got married yesterday so I have an excuse this year.
  15. I prefer, after being through the "I am worried phase" and out the other side, to just go and fly. Pay my rego and do it. My 19 reg aircraft is fine, flyable and serviced regularly. Doomsayers and end of days forcasters go away, I fly rag and tube, I servicer it. I am not looking for GA priviliges. Geez people, If you don't like it go and fly GA etc.
  16. hey, instead of bitching about it, how about some one who is actually there give us an update.
  17. doesn't seem to give much more that the ersa. Good trial but no sale to me. I think Oz Runways is great but needs more than 280 airports for it to be useful to me.
  18. but remember, Inverell and Warialda are not part of the NSW triangle (Newcastle/Sydney/Wollongong)
  19. Nope, not going, would have gone but getting married (bride to be may not see the funny side of delaying the wedding so I can go again.)
  20. Pearce had power and basic ailerons. I believe part of the aircraft are in a NZ museum, (possibly next to the installation installer, chinese gooseberry and tree tomato...) ;)
  21. Yep, perpetuate the mistake because the yanks say so, works for me...
  22. I have had an ASIC for 5 years now. Never been asked for it at any aerodrome I have landed at. Does the Asic only apply if you leave the flight side and want to return, or is it in vogue all the time. Seem to me that if you land at an airport, refcuel and then take off without leaving the airside then it is useless and unenforceable...am I correct?
  23. Gunnedah has fuel, run by the local aeroclub. The contact number is in the ERSA. You will need to contact them to come out and unlock the pump. They are a friendly mob and good for a chat. Used them a few times when flying the Xair from Goulburn to Armidale and Inverell. The profits go to the local aero club so worthwhile using them. Good strip to.
  24. garbage, us spring chickens resemble that remark...!!!
  25. so move 5km to Queanbeyan in NSW just up the road, not all round the state.......!! n asnd keep the same staff, not train new ones and get rid of the expertise we already have. Its not rocket science folks...!!!
