    My understanding is that the 'G' aircraft are maintained by LAME and if applicable by the owner / builder of the 'G' aircraft so long as the owner did build the aircraft and has the appropriate maintenance qualification. An example would be a kit aircraft that is bought after being built by another would need to be maintained by a LAME or another authorised person (RAA to advise such in the near future and won't be any of the current L1, 2 or 4's; unless they do further training and qualification / experience.) Sounds safe and fair to me.

    . May be this, I don't know for sure.

    They will have to do time with an RAA instructor to get a pilot certificate; in late March they will start process of ratifying the instructors and guess they will need to do such in a 'G' aircraft??? If they accept a recognition of the GA license then they would have to limit to above 600kg.

    I reckon there will be RAA pilots who cruise through getting the endorsement; at the end of the day its gaining the qualification and then good airmanship. I know a few GA pilots who are uncomfortable in controlled airspace. I'll get it when available and meet the requirements.

    Be interested to know how many aircraft have rego allocated to them and how many are in current rego. I did read recently where RAA is contacting all aircraft owners with expired registration to ascertain their plans forward (plan to become airworthy or never to fly again),

    Absolutely agree, No real difference in annual membership costs etc; so why change will be their consideration. Some may change and if CASA alter their medical requirement to similar to the UK / USA etc then they may change back.
  7. Blueadventures
    Yes; I'm very surprised you do not know this fact already.
  8. Blueadventures
    Medical standard would be first on the list and not much more.
  9. Blueadventures
    Sad one.

    Ian Thanks for the great forum and look forward to the new version. Like Ibob and I'm sure most others will the forum posts still be viewable, if not is there a way of saving the topics especially the aircraft topics so people can retain a copy? Best regards Mike

    On Bush Flyers Downunder (Facelokk) (Book) they are saying performed touch and go just before incident and also have some flight aware data images posted and seems maybe an engine failure type contributing factor. Not conformed of course and posted to be somewhat helpful.

    Saying 3 minutes into flight after taking off. Terrible; condolences to all involved.

    Agree, must be right on TDC otherwise will drive piston down and direction will be relative to before or after TDC. I have passed on info to Bill.

    There is an LS powered motor bike in Mackay. I'll did up an image.

    Look at the features on the E2A-1000 at Aircraft spruce, I have that one and made a 1/2” by about 300 mm pipe rather than the flexible hose connection into the spark plug thread in head. Works a treat. I recommend the need for the valve after the gauge for available pressure so you can turn on to get slight flow of air to confirm at TDC on compression stroke. Then open for full pressure adjusted for 80 psi or maybe 87 your choice. Such worth the extra bit of money.

    Many have them Jabiru, Bristelle have electric flap; Svannah's have electric trim. Very common.

    This is its plate if any benefit to you. I did its condition report for change of ownership.
  19. Blueadventures
    Aircraft now owned and based at Turtle Park since before December 2023.

    I came across these images tonight. The alloy and red one is the Teenie Two Bob built and its first flight at McMaster Field west of Rockhampton (my glider back then is in the background); it was the second he built the first he made in Canada. The other if its a Teenie was at Ingham, Qld. RAA search shows Bob 19-7319 is still in current rego so must be flying somewhere.

    Thanks for info. I had been leaning to maybe a tightening of the turn; however was not there and should never guess. Appreciate the info. Best Regards and condolences to families and all involved.

    Which post reads correct, this is yesterdays; being happy with the landings? "i did 3 good landings before he called me in. i wanted to keep going". All good, just a little confused. Cheers and enjoy next solo.
  23. Blueadventures
    Looks like you got yourself a job🙂
  24. Blueadventures
    Was the instructor instructing or just along for a ride in the new aircraft? Who was left seat / PIC?
  25. Blueadventures
