Six months after they abandon the anti-safety "wing-loading" bureaucratic rule.
I can beat that rule, but it would make a great aircraft SSHHIITT !.
From 6G+6G- ,max speed 140 mph, @ 61 mpg US.
TO
2G+1G- ,with a max speed of 60 knots, & fuel consumption like a two-stroke. Wing area 131 sq feet

If cleaning SS don't use mild steel on it (wire-brush), use only SS scouring pads.

Low pressure above the wing can only be 14.7329334 pounds per square inch.
I have no idea what max pressure below the wing could be. but suspect more than my work-shop compressor, 200psi.

If removing the max speed numbers is helping someone/anyone, how about removing that Anti safety "wing loading" number for 95-10 aircraft !,
Haveing a good strong aircraft must out-way (6+ 6-G) having a flimsy aircraft that only just holds together on climb out.
I have worked out how to beat the beaurocrates, but not to any advantage to aviation.

Tried to put an aution house item, onto this site but it disappeared, possible conflict,
It was a self contained 12 volt system with max capacity of 500ltrs, (back of ute)
Pickles archerfield has a 200ltrs lot 435. To check it out.

I couldn't find the time to go get a camera & take photos when I was working the metal into an airoframe.
Probably many more builders have the same problems.

The same thing happened at a Southisland NZ airport as the contingent of Unilever people didn't hear the last call from the bar, and saw their plane taxiing.
They weren't arrested and we're brought back by minibus, to the same bar for more drinks, On the house as the bar speakers were broken.

Hi from me,

Would come and annoy you if I find were you creat things, from sheets of metal like you have shown us.

I believe RAA will close it,s present business, Then rebirth itself as a GA recreational association.
They were quick to squeeze the rag & tube 95-10, out of their register.
Then apply for higher weight aircract that would normally be on the GA register.
I a wait a "New Light Recreational Aircraft Club"

NoT all EX RAA aircraft & now none registered, have owners that are still members of that organization,
Some are still maintained up to flight specifications. Just waiting for a change to their dreams.

I am in the assumption that CASA aircraft do not have to have there registered numbers on said plane,
why do RAA insist on their planes showing rego numbers.
Airfield manager, s only have to take note of the rego, to put in a claim, unlike CASA aircraft without the sign writing.
My aircraft spotting is much harder with missing registration on their wings.

Perhaps a system of Landing Fee,s should be based on the vehicle WEIGHT.
I cannot see a Powered Parachute or a Nanotrike impacting a grass strip like a couple of tons of turbine 8 seater aircraft.
If said aircraft weighs less then half a ton it should pay less than a standard aircraft.
That said the grass should be cropped shorter for the smaller wheels.
so maybe Im wrong again. LoL

So Let's start a new organization.
Could we call it "Ultralite.org
Or something really smart ?.

How long until RAA get a weight increase approved?
in Governing Bodies

AND how are the trainee's, supposed to know it ALL, before getting their certificate.
Four pages of abbreviations, Law, aeronautics, Radio. And learn to fly all at the same time.
Beyond me. I failed.
Not happy jan!
