bull

So the aircraft was heavy, the wind was light from the SW and the choice of runways was a 530m grass runway to the west or a 1600m sealed runway to the south. The first was a very quick taxi the other a 1km back track. I wonder which choice we would have made... and which choice we would now make with what we have learnt from this? Hopefully I will take the longer runway.

quoted takeoff distance138 mts so what happened to the other 392 mts of available runway???

 

 

27 is the short grass runway; higher rolling resistance.[ATTACH=full]47153[/ATTACH]

So????

 

 

RIP John, sad news condolences to all his family and friends.

For sure Turbs, but I think Col is big enough to handle being called a little fish so I personally wouldn't worry about that.Bull does come across as being a little over passionate but I don't think he means any harm and going by what he has said it sounds like someone has been hassling his family about him which never is a nice thing to have happen.

You are correct ,two members have contacted my brother via email about my postings , and have caused major grief between him and I ,and I personally do not think that should be allowed and will do all in my power to expose these people as they should grow some balls and address the matter with me and me alone ok........

 

 

What might be an interesting interlude for you, can be quite traumatic for the person involved, and this one to me looks like cyber bullying where maybe some action needs to be taken.

Sorry Turbs , col was the one to first throw punches at me by interluding that I was here under an assumed identity , and I was so truamaticaly affected by his postings ,[i could not even go out the door for fear that I might be mistaken for someone else,]so yes I agree with you about the cyber bullying thing and yes maybe we should take some action against col for this heinous act,dont you agree,,,,,,,[a sence of humour puts different lights upon things Turbo and I was so stressed out ijusthad to reply to col in the manner I did,,,Whats wrong with asking who he is, he asked me??]

Sorry Ian will control my expletives from now on ok

 

 

Scott, pleased to meet you. Col

So is it YOUR real name ??or are you going to do a Hillary and plead ignorance col?[ WikiLeaks exposes even little fish like you col] Andjust to clarify my postings ,,,I,m currently fully compliant with RAA rules and regs and so is my aircraft and have been for some years now. My questioning was about how it would be beyond raa to prosecute over 1000 or so exmembers is because it would be financially unviable for raa and a real TEST of RAA,s teeth ah col,,,,so if you want to send an investigater around ,no problem send him also, if the use of power is proven to be abused in registration etc a code of conduct investigation would be warrented don,t you think col?????

 

 

Pretty hard to easily sue you since Bull is probably not your real name. Most of the rest of the serious contributors use names in plain view or easily detectible.

Col if you had been following this forum for any length of time ,which you have not ;You would know that my Name is Scott Evans 15 telford st Proserpine Qld 4800 and as you can see from my email address Bull is short for my old commercial fishing callsign bullrout as I was known for 35 years over the radio catching those prawns you love so much on the RAA tab, ah col=====jones is that your real name?????And position in the RAA side of things?? or is that exposing too much info about YOU col,,at least Don has the balls to tell the truth about which way he wants raa to go,,,,so who,s being sly and hiding something here col? [your also welcome to come around to my place and I,ll show you the nice patch of lawn growing at the back of my shed if you like??]

 

 

Good on you Bull that will stop a lot of rot quicker than a flash of lightening.The sticky beaks are just to hard to cop at times.

All this legal talk and litigation and liability and so forth,,,,,,Makes me wonder how many aircraft and pilots are dropping off the register with raa, because of frustration with the system and are going back to the old days anyway and flying around their own patch in that little plane that they lovingly maintain and pander ,as they have safely been doing for many years,..And are just saying #$^^#@them if they want to sue /prosecute me ,well go ahead,,getting anything out off a stone or pensioner with bugger all assets to lose,will be a challenge for them and if they threaten jail time ,,,,,Well so be it i,ll probably be eating better then I am now and wont have to worry about the power bills etc ,,,,,,,,lol,,,,,clear prop..................

Off topic {sorry Ian] Now an issue has been brought to my attention,If anyone has an issue or concern with anything I post on this forum please feel free to contact or message me direct at [email protected] or 0458912058 and show some balls and address the problem with me. NOT my brother as he do,s not need the shit Nor is he my keeper/minder/teacher/ Nor is it his job to tell me anyone,s concerns OK,,,,,,,,,,,so if you have a problem with anything I have said,or might say in the future,please ring me /email me .or meet me out the back of the shed and we will sort it out ah......................................................

 

 

I started my training with Chieftain in 1970 in a C150. Was paying $17 per hour dual.I'm sure the plane on the pole was a Vampire. There was a Mustang operating out of Illawarra. I think it was VH-BOY. There was another one hangared over on the Marions Street side of the airport, just can't think of its Rego.

 

OME

agreed Emu, the plane was a vampire, climbed all over it as akid. Also on the eastern side used to be several old dc3,sand a minibike track with the wreckage of two light aircraft that hadcollided in approach, and they just left the burnt out planes there

 

 

But the problems start when the hockey players want to play hockey on the golf course !!!!

Or vice verser,as the golfers start breaking windows at the stadium ah,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,lol

 

 

But a golf course is really just 9-18 grass runways isn't it?

Not really a level playing field,,,but it,ll do ah.........lol

 

 

Well, I guess we can wrap this thread up and I can go back to my detailed review.Thanks Col for your helpful suggestion - I will keep it in mind as I complete my review.

 

Considering all the discontent about the current constitution, not one single suggestion for a specific amendment!

 

Just 20 posts in total and most of those off topic.

 

It certainly says to me that the discontent has no substance and any disparaging comments from here on have no credibility.

 

Don

Bull mrramsay ,you have been asked about the four stage inspections in the tech manual and you very slyly have dogded the subject.

 

 

Culpable negligence is roughly when you know you are doing something wrong but you still do it. So if you get a ski full then take a mate on the pillion seat, you're likely to be charged. You may even have a problem if you just injure someone on the unreg/unlucky bike if you're sober.

Tell that to the thousands of rural Australians who operate commercial mustering operations every year with trail bikes and quads, and unregistered horses and have been doing so for decades.

 

 

Good luck with that.Would you call that a "level playing field"?

A level playing field is only required if you are playing the same game mr ramsay,,,,,,,,,,ultralight flying and GA flying ARE not the same game ,as per the original reason the AUF was formed in the first place,i,m sure hockey players would not like to play the game by the rules of golf and vice verser,,,,but both games are hitting a little ball with a stick ah................

 

 

You don't want to cross over to the criminal side bull. Thousands of RA aviators are flying legal and covering themselves with adequate PL insurance without making a Federal case out of it.

criminal side ???? it,s not illegal to ride a trail bike on private property and no rego or licence is required,,,whats the difference Turb,s??And I think trail bike riding has a much larger accident rate than the little planes flying around the patch,,i now I,m more scared to go for a ride then go for a fly!!!!

Mr BULL,Firstly, I had nothing to do with RAAus wanting to look at how they can help their members make their health standard declaration.

Secondly, Aren't the aircraft in the E&LAAA going to be VH registered?

 

Can there be anything more GA than that?

VH regoed ,,yes but under the same guidelines set down by casa for raa, without the empire building of raa, mr ramsay.........

I don't believe the RPL is either.Let's assume RA-AUS is requesting access to CTA only in Australia...does that bring a few more in favor?

NO

 

 

The RAA ASIC fee is cost neutral and not subsidised anymore. The handling costs of an ASIC application is not trivial - and if there are complexities in issuing any endos then perhaps there should be handling fee.

A very LARGE fee for cta endo,s to offset the amount of money spent on lobbying Canberra to get cta access too ah.....................sounds familiar Col,,,another reason for RAAus to justify our fee increases just around the corner or will our fee,s go down for those who don't want cta access as the "large amount'' of members who want cta access pay that large fee for lobbying ,therefore bringing costs for cta into the ""user pays ''bracket??

 

 

Actually it was not above 300' and not cross roads.

Not cross roads is incorrected David ,, the definition was ,,,not above 300 ft and not to fly along sealed roads,[primarily to avoid power lines if I remember correctly] Also land owners permission was required unless public land or parks Also as this was the birther movement of ultralighting in Australia there was no licence requirements and airworthy rules, so many a dreaming biggles brought a kit from the states or built their own ,and as a result of no two seaters ,or proper training ,the death rate spiralled.AUF was brought into being to regulate this lighter side of aviation in Australia.and the movement to two seaters was originally designed to allow safe training , NOT TO ALLOW YOU TO FLY COASTAL AT 140KTS,or use GA PRIVLIGES AS A RIGHT of your little ''certificate to fly''
