  1. Bought a Garmin aero mount and a ram mount off them a couple of weeks ago. Great service. And price
  2. if you look at your member portal you will see what i mean.
  3. . RPC not RPL . RPL is ga. It is not attached to your RPC. If you log into your member portal the l1 will be in the endorsement column and your RPC goes in the ratings column.
  4. There are lots of bin chickens here this morning. I had go full throttle to overtake one.😁
  5. If you contact Bunbury aero club Tim will help you.
  6. Is Bunbury a possibility for you. We had a great raaus and ga instructor at Latrobe valley. Tim little. He is now the CFI at Bunbury.
  7. I know what you mean. I have pretty much had the same experience as you. It's surprising how much a few weeks off can set you back.
  8. FINALLY got my rpc. it took 50 hrs because of all the breaks in between. now i can fly the xair to my hearts content. i know the basic rpc is just solo practice in the 25nm zone but that is fine with me for a while until i start x country lessons.
  9. these don't stay open either. you push the fuel tester against the spring pressure to get fuel.
  10. https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/suspected-crashed-plane-found-in-search-for-missing-pilot/ar-AA1IKpsW?ocid=socialshare
  11. You must have had them in your planes
  12. it would have scared sh#t out of you wouldn't it. did it come through your windscreen. i have heard of a truck in wa that had a wedgetail eagle come through the windscreen and was still alive in the cabin. trouble with them is they feed on roadkill and don't move fast enough when you get near them.
  13. my fuel drain valve drips after i do a fuel check. do i have to replace it or just change an o ring. i have never looked at one before but in pictures it looks like there is an o ring on the end of it.

  15. Pilot mental health in spotlight after Air India Flight 171 disaster ©REUTERSCaptain Mohan Ranganathan, a leading aviation safety expert in India, has revealed that 'several' Air India pilots had allegedly confirmed that the well-experienced pilot had suffered from poor mental health. Speaking to The Daily Telegraph , he claimed: 'He had taken time off from flying in the last three to four years. He had taken medical leave for that. Captain Sabharwal is also understood to have taken bereavement leave after the death of his mother, though it is believed by Mr Ranganathan that he had been 'medically cleared' by Air India prior to the fatal crash last month.
  16. Pilot mental health in spotlight after Air India Flight 171 disaster©Daily Mail Investigations into the Air India plane crash are looking into the pilots' medical records as it's claimed one of them had depression and mental health issues. Captain Sumeet Sabharwal, an experienced pilot with more than 8,200 hours in the cockpit, was piloting the Boeing 787 Dreamliner when it plummeted into a residential area, called Meghani Nagar, killing 241 people on board and claiming 19 more lives of those on the ground.
  17. pilots that dress in lycra fly really slow around the cicuit giving the bird to the planes trying to get around them.
  18. wouldn't get me underground either. when i looked at the rescue pods at central norseman was enough to put me off.
  19. so you just liked the feel of the pantyhose.🤣
  20. good points except the fishing one. searey has no reverse so how do you back down on a marlin.
  21. how come your still wearing them now 😁
  22. An experienced pilot turns both switches off by mistake . I don't think so. And they can't be bumped off either as Juan stated.
