    I don't care what gets said about them, I will keep mine until I go to my grave. Mine hauls my sorry arse around the sky, well enough for me 🙂

    Triggered reminder for me…..when building airstrip, make sure sides are clearly marked…..

    I was sure I picked that up from the AOPA broadcast Thursday night……

    Australian Aviation will always have a problem with 800+ CASA employees of which few have a Pilots licence of some sort, administering about 9000 aircraft. Then you have the FAA in the U.S. with 49 employees administering some 30,000 aircraft. You can see CASA is way over MTOW 🙂

    Just fit what other owners have and what works. Fly happy 😃 In this case, screw the MARAP system, your aircraft wont care 🙂

    Turbs, dont sweat it…..its not your problem. You wont have to pay even 🙂

    Trust me, I consult with good people and I learn from others. Yes I break the law somewhere every week, but I compromise no one else in the process, nor myself. But there are some LAMEs I would not let touch a $300 rusty Corolla, even if I wanted to drive to the next town. I have learnt in this life I have to fix nearly everything I own, myself. Just the other day bought a new 4t 4 post hoist and installed it, because for the last 55 years so, I have rolling around on the ground under cars, fixing them…..yeah I know, I am a slow learner.

    This was the first of many disasters I found on my newly acquired aircraft, dontcha love the firewall penetration of the fuel line that was marked 7 years old and done as part of the 5 year rubber replacement requirements as detailed by Rotax. . Which I immediately grounded……further inspection by me (totally unqualified) found more problems revealing a flying death trap:-(. RAA were not interested, said they could not care if my wings were held on with Blue Tak. Whats a Condition Report worth? SFA. Care factor by RAA, ZERO. So now I do not fcuking care anymore, I do my own work now….have all the FAA Tech Books and study them carefully, like my whole life…..taught MYSELF. Illegal and I dont care, Illegal is a sick bird. Now just waiting for some Aviation Gronk to send this info, to snitch on me to RAA…….

    Read the PDS referring to the insurance scheme and it will be like many, full of escape clauses and all but worthless 😞

    The MARAP is simply a document to read and allocate an invoice to. In respect of the one in this post, its just an excuse to charge money for something not required. Which in itself cannot really be substantiated. Since I have beed involved in Aviation which is all of 5 minutes, I have seen gaping holes in some things, over regulation in other garnished with a whole heap of b/s. Don't ever mention Condition Reports to me either…..that will wind me right up 🙂

    5 minutes for a rubber stamp job, next please for another MARAP the same as the previous one, KA-Ching……

    RAA is a company, not a non profit and it has to make money, which is easy for a monopoly. They are worse than Banks of which you get choices.

    You pay the fee for the engineering? And IF someone else needs the same…..they just resell their existing work on to the next Joe for the same money. Its called profiteering and people wonder WHY I want Part 103 USA?
  14. jackc
    You know what? Just get an FAA FAR Part 103 compliant aircraft and just fly. Fcuk the rules, CASA could not catch a cold, let alone an unregistered, unlicenced pilot flying around outback Qld, no matter where it was.
  15. jackc
    Condition Reports should be written on toilet paper, because that is all they are worth 😞

    No problem for me, wife gets my whole will and I have no blood children……youngest of them is 50, so do they sue my estate left to their mother?
  17. jackc
    Yep
  18. jackc
    Yes I agree IF someone else is affected in any way. Since pilot is unlicensed and aircraft is unregistered and is not certified and flown on own private property. Aircraft was not illegal to purchase etc. Then all risk is accepted by the pilot undertaking the activity. Looking at an Insurance PDS, there will be no valid claim against any policy. I have recently been certified of sound mind by Phycological Examination prior to updating my Will. So, all my marbles are present and correct 🙂

    And if you kill yourself on your own property, by your own behaviour posing no risk to anyone else. Its death by misadventure?

    I have realised I need to start at the start, to establish credibility. To me, that means a meeting with the FAA itself. I think I have enough contacts, to achieve that……

    A Kelpie sold at the Ray White dog auction, top price paid was $33,000 last week, here. A couple of Part 103 Aerolite 103s for that money 🙂
  22. jackc
    Look up its meaning…..
  23. jackc
    I don't publish everything I do here, because I know you work against me in the background. I feel much Schadenfreude for you…….
  24. jackc
    Look at how many big shot car racers and aviators with thousands of hours training have died? IF I fly on my own property I can only kill myself? Yet ONE man can take 4 passengers and himself in a totally uncertified vessel to their deaths. Govts stood by and did nothing, even with all the publicity. We DONT live in a perfect World, and how boring it would be anyway.
  25. jackc
    One thing you don't understand is…..you DONT need a licence to fly. the aircraft does not CARE. Just like a car, bonus is you can drive legally without a licence on your OWN property, just like you should be able to fly your plane…..
