If the 95-10 aircraft Were Not designed to be 40k, stall, & Flimsy for weight, Then add in that wing-load rule. We possibly could design & build better, & safer aircraft, that Don't fall out of the sky when Abiding by Bureaucracy.

If that stall speed dictated by the Bureaucrats was a few klicks more (for 95 aircraft) perhaps doing a speedy landing (with contrary wind),  that even a really good DRAKO pilot  can get caught out , when flying so slow.

My sentiment as well.

I miss all that stop contributing, for whatever reason.

Come november will you miss ME ?.

Only stopped by the NBN.

"An aircraft os listed with an ASAO if it complies."

"(1) A Part 103 aircraft is listed with a Part 103 ASAO for the purposes of this regulation if the aircraft is listed with the Part 103 ASAO in accordance with the requirements prescribed by the Part 103 Manual of Standards for the purposes of this subregulation."

Still dutch to me ?

An aircraft is listed, "

Which part of the regulation would the aircraft be listed in.

It probably took lots of lawyers to get that paper to an, illegible document.

If you wish to read it Get more lawyers to decipher it !. LoL (is it English)

Better to have the airframe crumple around you, that a stiffer one that damages the occupants.

Electrical Switches !.

The NONE maintenance product.

Has anyone tried a little lubricant  yet. I had good result from "Lanin" & Inox. aboard my yacht, to combat damp switchgear failure.

Certified Or registered ?

None certified seems to imply that the aircraft does Not meet some criteria for RAA registration.

Sorry I did not read the report.

spacesailor

PS: HummelBird, Certified but none registered as Not complying with a Wingload rule.

Frankly, I find the presumption that those of us who are not (because we have chosen other career paths) possessed of trade qualifications are somehow inept with our hands to be the height of occupational snobbery that is unfortunately reflected in RAAus's L2 assessment.

 

I agree entirely with this as only being educated for Five years, Then off to the work-force.

Studies as long ago as the 1930s showed that, within the range we are talking about, higher landing speeds led to fewer landing accidents. So how wouldCASA be making us safer by restricting the stall speed?

"It's not about making you safer, it's about limiting the risk to the people around you. You can make your own decisions and choose your own risks, but limited speed and limited weight limits the kinetic energy available to cause damage."

IF CASA wanted safety for the public, they wouldn't allow PROPELLERS on the front end of aircraft !.

"Back in the AUF days, exemptions were negotiated on the basis that the ultra-light weight of the aircraft meant that risk to others was insignificant. On that basis,

• You can fly without a CASA license
   
  
• You can do your own maintenance
   
  
• You don't need an aviation medical
   
  
• Aircraft don't need to be certified to the normal GA standards
   
  

as long as the weight and stall speed were below specified limits.

In the early AUF days the weight limit was 450kg. Then it was raised to 480kg. Then 544kg. Then 600kg. Now talk about 760kg, and campaigning for higher stall speed as well."

And they didn't have to comply with the WING LOAD Rule.

Today 

It's raining ! :Yippee.

So Council have sent a flyer warning of floods, & spending more money on "FloodSmarts" new free online flood warning service.

Forgetting the NBN will stop the house phones & oldies internet services.

" the "race to be the NEW GA." .

Except for the Old 95-10, We Can & would probably be better off under the experimental VH rules.

Without any weight or wingload rule. 

Just have to dismantle your aircraft to facilitate, endorsing Each step of construction .

More Bureaucracy, of course !.

spacesailor

I thought, C,A,S,A. stood for Civil Aviation Safety Australia.

But it keeps proving, It's Just a Part (very small) of FAA.

AND

Not a bit about safety in that Bureaucracy.

So don't expect normality from them. What is Sensible to us, is just bureaucratic words to them,

Talking about "CNC machine"

Sainty's, big billet (of aluminium) becomes a Beautiful V8 motor, for drag-racing.

Fascinating to watch the process. 

spacesailor

How about!.

Cheap to build, Cheap to run & flies like a real aeroplane.

Can be made as a Learner (tricycle-nose-wheel), Then convert it tail-dragger to get the extra speed, & range, (61 mpg).

AND a great looker !.

I saw the report in the EAA March 2009 sport pilot mag.

What volts does it use, battery size, ?

I have four 12 volt camera's, that tie into a PC home security unit.

Not that good resolution though !.

My Daughter is looking at getting a GoPro, But seeing these 360 camera's, I will get the camera review, for her & lots of "Dog_sledging"

YOU HAVE AN ENGINE LIFT HANDY FOR ME ?. Just can't bend the left hip, so no pedaling a bike, or getting that stupid leg over the Girls cross bar.

Just back from Hydrotherapy & a walk, Home to pop a pain-pill, hoping I can sleep through the pain tonight.

Three weeks ago I had two Dr's manipulate my leg, & have had agony ever since, Their verdict, an operation.

news for them I'm already 8 months into my 365 day waiting list .

" I'm pretty sure they have an "internal use" copier. "

Then again so have lots of the members. When making a downloadable copy Can ISO be used, as Microsoft & others have used,?.

Will any mag be available to "guests" & the common public, Or will it be restricted to Paying members only.

(I couldn't access it once out of the RAA,(even at the newsagent's.))

Struggles to get ahead.!
