  1. This is the link to Transport Safety Investigation Act 2003

    It explains the Structure of ATSB, powers etc.

    SAOs need to avoid conflict with the processes of ATSB, Police and Coroners Courts, which they have done in the past. 

    However:

    • there are still opportunities for monthly reports of incidents; these need to be writted by a suitably skilled person
    • Self Administering Organisations can publish Coroners Reports which often provide an insight which helps us avoid a similar incident. There can be a lag of years in publishing the report, but the present situation is that reports are going to waste because nobody gets them.

  2. ................pair of pliers in his right hand.

    He rested every battery and by the time he was finished the bill was the price of a Mercury 250 hp boat motor.
    “Well it’s not the batteries” he said with that smugness all tradies have. “Don’t worry about it“ said Turbo and set fire to the Drifter.

    ”THEY DON’T INSURE EDRIFTERS” yelled the Sparky. 
    “Sh!t!!!!” Said Turbo bearing at the fire, but............

    "Goodness gracious me, you are making them electrtic" said a Sahir who sounded switched on.

    "Do you have a reliable power supply to charge the batteries?" asked Turbo and they all fell asunder laughing and digging each other in the rubs.

    "Oh my goodness" laughed one, "is the Pope a jolly Catholic" and they all fell about laughing even more.

    Another said "Turbo Sahib" (he already had their respect) "Lay your hand on this cable (pointing to a wire running from a palm tree, through a front window and out the other side through the window of another house), and you will know the answer to that question. Turbo had lost enthusiasm for the laying of hands, but he knew it would be along time before his Vespa two strokes would be superseded here, and as for the Indian clone of the Drifter with the Mahindra two stroke................

He was wearing a wig and false beard. As we just read he'd galvaised the Tahsildar into action and made his pitch to quite a big crowd. Whe it was over he asked them to lunch and then pulled the Esky out from under the gown and flung its contents over the audience; gutted raw mullet chopped into little bits, and .......

  7. .in a chase. And so the Company Encabulators on the Cheap (EC) was formed to give them a slight boots in speed beyond the known speed of a tiger's run. This had been calculated by the resident academic, and due to his love of the tiger habitat natives Turbo had discounted the price of the smaller unit to 45 cents. Of course there were millions of these bikes and Turbo made a cool 3.5 million in the first year.  Then there was an incident which shook the whole Mountain community. A tiger chasing an overweight Sahir on a moped saw there was a curve ahead and cut the corner. All that was left of the Sahir the next day was a pair of gold foil shoes. The academic had not had his paper peer reviewed, and hadn't allowed for the simple geometry of a curve. This would require a bigger encabulator, but ............................

  8. I agree with reason he gave; there is considerable risk at an accident scene.

    RAA has always been between a rock and a hard place in terms of not being able to get access to the Police Brief and the Coroner wanting to know the cause of death and not the cause of accident which we need to learn to avoid making the same mistake. Having said that there are accidents  where some Coroners do go down the path of covering the cause of accident, and they are immensely useful to us.  Then there's the delay in getting the Coroners' decisions.

    The TSI Act 2000 needs some scrutiny to see where there are opportunities which CAN be reported because things like forced landings runway excursions, airprox, etc do need to be circulated and which Mick Monck says he would like RA pilors to have the same status as other aviators, but the response to that is likely to be that RA operates as a Self Administering Organisation complying with a lower standard of safety than GA, so accident investigation should also be funded at a lower level.

  9. .........assistance as he was bailed up by six tigers, all hostile, snarling leaving no doubt about his fate. Turbo wasn’t ready for this because his story was about people so no claws or 75 mm teeth.

    So I now have a myGov account and a separate myGov ID account and also I had to get a separate Directors ID - Please - Defund the Government now it costs us our lives in stupidity. 

     

    So this is DEFINED AS

    myGovID and your myGov account are different
    Your myGov account lets you link to and access government services like Medicare and the ATO. myGovID is the Australian Government's Digital Identity app you can use to sign into a range of participating government online services like myGov.

    To set up your myGovID, you need:

    1. a smart device. The myGovID app is compatible with most smart devices and is only available from the Apple App Store or Google Play.
    2. a personal email address. As it's your personal Digital Identity, your identity documents will be linked to the email you choose. ...
    3. to be 15 years or older.

     

    However, as I am a director of a company, they want more 

    A DIRECTORS ID

    What is director ID in Australia?

    A director ID is a unique identifier given to a director who has verified their identity with us. This will help to prevent the use of false or fraudulent director identities.
     
    Are we over governed or what?  
    Why with all this information do we still need a bloody ASIC for airports - now that anyone who has a minimum of a  myGovID  has provided enough ID to all government Depatments. 
    As the accountant said - the government tells you to bend over, and an "unlubricated pineapple" is inserted backwards in your REAR. 
    ENJOY.

    You need to make an appointment and go and see your Commonwealth Government Member with all the facts typed up so he can easily send that up to the responsible  Minister.

    Plenty of people have a good spit at the people they congregate with, but that doesn't start the process.

    "The Government" is a lot of specific Departments, your issues belong to two or three of them.

  12. .......had his own box at all the Supercar events, The Indy 500, and the Delhi Dash. It reminded him of another time when he and Cappy flew the J230 to Delhi to hunt Tiger with the Maharaja of Assore;

    The two were allocated an elephant and Cappy said he needed to sit at the back and rest his o.5 Holland and Holland on Turbo's shoulder, giving Turbo his defence weapons. It was very boring for the first two hours, and then they found their tiger. You can hear both barrels on the H&H going off, see te result of Cappy's legendary shooting skills which left Turbo to dispatch it with two bamboo sticks and a kick to the shoulder, before.................

     

     

  13. .......buy one of the new Turbine Service Station franchises. Turbo had been following closely with bated breath (short for abated breath, not the baited breath that some forunites admit to), and the twists and turns of a fuel thread on social media until he realised that what was on the market, and people used by the billion litres a day could be sourced from Turbine Cat Farms, not only that but he could use the rat p!ss as well. This was a win win situation and he added the 10% alcohol content necessary for combustion by distilling it from hemp byproducts at a Griffith facility owned by Cappy whose name was on the management board of the Griffith RSL. What could he call it? He thought for a long time and finally came up with "Turbine puts a TIGER in your tank." The sales volume was so good he had to pull product from several dog pounds, then cattle lots, then..................

  14. ....you don't have to use the arrestor chute if you're just doing circuits; one pedant argued that if you were flying straight corners, an octagon with an OAT less than 17 degees C, and you had more than 50% seived and mixed fuel from a well-known pump brand, and it was less than 13 days old and not brown, you would have to use the chute every second ciruit.

    ...... reason being that while Turdy said it was "touch & go" (avref) he couldn't do that yet as he hadn't mastered the landing (avref) technique of a J20, so he had to make it a "pass" (avref) because Tubb needed 5000 m of safe concrete to get the thing landed and stopped (the only Manual available with the J20 was headed "HOW TO RAND" but was in a dialect of Mandarin, and Turbo can only read his Apple).

     

    The only location in range with 5000 m is DG International so he peeled off (avref [& mandarinref]) and headed south to the safety & security of the China-like Dan Land, so the J20 felt at home (although the cockpit voice prompts often broke in and said "Try not to be so ham-fisted on the contlolles, you crot". (Turbo also chuckled when in Ground Following Mode under the radar at Albury, the voice said "Tellain, Tellain, purr up"., to the extent that after he flared at DGI, Turbo found himself saying "Rand you bugger ......... then 3000 metres later "Prease stop".

    Side Note ------ I just had a call from Turbo & he was almost too excited to speak clearly ....... as he just had another windfall when one of the Chinese Squadlon Readers on the Splatlees offered Tubb a 5th gen fighter to replace his ratty old F16.

     

    So the news is that Turbs now has a low hours J20 and the below photo was taken when he did his low pass over Chez Cappy and said bugger the Kapooka Restricted Airspace ...... although a couple of the more zealous recruits let fly at him with automatic weapons fires (AWF).

  21. .......they opted for aerial deployment. Turbo agreed to hire his old B52, which he had found on a Coral Atoll in the Pacific, where it apparently forced landed after a fuel problem, and the island was too short to take off again. Turbo found the fuel had turned a brown colour and was able to immdediately diagnose that it was contaminated by running too fast through the lines, eroding them on the bends and causing a build up on the blades which reduced power by 23.22%, and was exacerbated by the fuel being supplied at a profit of 79.8% per litre, so he drained the old fuel into the Pacific put in a tanker load of Jet-A1 and flew the B52 to Cappy's strip in the Spratleys where he repainted it in Chinese camo and no one noticed it, but sometimes .............

    Where the drawing is blurred right where you need a dimension etc, you can go to a Plan Printer, and have the section enlarged and if that doesn't work you can use the bluepring as a negative and print to postive which will show blurred black figures on white, then scan that into an AI photo app, usually free with genealogy software which sharpen up a face to HD standard.
