  1. Genuine question. What happened in 2013?
  2. Coroner’s Findings attached.COR 2022 005430 Form 37-Finding into Death Following Inquest_Signed.pdfCOR 2022 005430 Form 37-Finding into Death Following Inquest_Signed.pdf
  3. Cross country in an unpowered paraglider? Hmm, I've no idea but an interesting concept.
  4. Given some were named on Friday by the Coroner, and referrals were made to the DPP..
  5. Another hearing?? Coroner's Inquest finding was delivered last Friday. With some costs, quantum to be determined, awarded against RAAUS. Recommendations mafe by the Coroner included a review by CASA of RAAUS. There will undoubtedly be civil action against RAAUS given the findings. But 'another' hearing already scheduled and costed? 🤔 Tell us more
  6. Pilot, local to Mt Beauty, has said he left during a lull in the weather. Blue sky was visible. Guessing he thought he could get out safely.
  7. Think you've mixed people? Matt Boutell went to casa. No longer there I'm told. And overreach? Hmm deliberately withholding relevant information from a Coroner is okay?
  8. Written report not yet online. But it was livestreamed when he delivered it on Friday.
  9. Given the referrals made to the DPP interesting times are ahead.
  10. He did. He mentioned it in his report.
  11. He had one hour in a 172 over 20 years prior. And over 200 hours in UNpowered paragliders. I've no idea how many touch n gos etc,or how recent the unpowered paraglider experience was.
  12. Except you don't know what you don't know. So why was the wrong decision made becomes the question. And 4 flights and under 10 hours of instruction doesn't set anyone up for good decision making re wx and x country flights. Add in the behaviour of some and the Coroner's referrals to the DPP and this becomes something that may effect all of us. And please, never firget a life was losr and many impacted by this crash.
  13. Except don’t think they are registering Group G aircraft yet, May 2025 is suggested start date.
  14. We’re not talking Qantas, JetStar etc so not sure logistically how the pax numbers would logistically be immediately available?
  15. But MPC Course is a once off. And you don't need to be an SAAA member to build & fly an experimental aircraft. Although we found membership invaluable during the build, test flying phases.
  16. Plenty of GA students learning in VH registered slings, fox bats and similar.
  17. I'm no expert but think Agile are underwriters, 🤔. Their website seems to indicate this. "Based out of Sydney and Melbourne, the Aviation underwriting team has over 100 years of insurance experience in Aviation and Aerospace, insuring risks varying from foot-launched gliders to interplanetary spacecraft." https://www.agileunderwriting.com/aviation/
  18. No RAAus experience, but we havw found Agile excellent.
  19. The Garmin transponder (ADSB IN/OUT) is cnnected to the Garmin 650 and Garmin G3X. So audio and display alerts are independent of any portable devices, phones, tablets etc. I could use Bluetooth to also show them on the ipad but there is no need.
  20. Nope. Not this time. DJPacro responded to my query above.
  21. Didn't think you were referring to me 🤔😂 And hadn't heard it before. Thanks for the explanation kind sir.
