    It's decided on duty of care these days. We lost several cases until we realised WE had to control the behaviour of the obvious risk-heads.

    Then you will find out what happens if something goes wrong.

    Here is the precedent case for our Public Liability: Precedent, Donoghue v Stevenson [1932] AC562 https://www.scottishlawreports.org.uk/resources/donoghue-v-stevenson/case-report/ Here are some basics of State Third Party Schemes for NSW, Vic, Queensland NSW Compulsory Third Party Vic TAC (Traffic Accident Commission) Transport Accident Charge This covers the owners of Victorian Motor Vehicles for the injury or death caused by their vehicle to another person. Qld MAC CTP Scheme introduced 1936 Underwritten by private licensed insurers. We are not covered by these schemes when we fly; that's how the motor vehicle works; not us. Those that deliberately breach their duty of care are in a different category, they may be charged with a crime like assault, manslaughter. If you read the Donoghue v Stevenson precedent carefully, you'll find its based an an unintended (accidental breach).

    I would suggest you do some very serious research; we have one system where the Government pays for injury reserved for motor vehicle actions and another where we have to pay for harming someone if we breach our duty of care. The second one has been in force for one amd a half generations, is based on a Scottish precedent and has nothing to do with the USA.

    That was my point, you don't want to enter lovely neat side slips and then round out diagonally on a line to a metre below ground level.

    Sorry I forgot that. I'd suggest discussing it with a local instructor, and as someone else mentioned checking for any restrictions on the aircraft, but it's not unlike crabbing into a crosswind and at the last minute a few feet above the ground, straightening up. The reason for the instructor opinion is it is a coordinated action, and you might have fallen into it and taught yourself, but it pays to make sure what the limits are.

    If you go to the public liability discussion, you'll see this didn't come from the USA, the precedent case is from Scotland in 1932. The only reason we're seeing this now is that RAA appear to be doing a clean up of procedures. It's not about transfer of blame; there has to be a duty of care and someone has to prove the duty of care was breached.
  12. turboplanner
    You're mixing up old ways with what has applied for nearly 45 years. Strict Liability has its place but the guys are on the right track above.
  13. turboplanner
    Why would you say that when it's very clear RAA is a self-administering organisation?

For a few days Rud was the talk of the town until Turbo took him up to the top of the Big Drop, telling Kipling it was the Gold Coast Tourist Lookout, and to hold his mongoose tightly. As they were going up Turbo was extolling the advances of the Gold Coast and how much better the lift was than the stairs in the old days, and Rud was taken in.

    Mongoose on the Bite - The True......... Don't tell anyone, because it might embarrass him, but there was a rat plague in Bombay while Cappy was in residence. The Mongoose kills rats faster than it kills Cobras, so he decided to buy a pair, but at the Kapooka Primary School the little Cook was never taught the plural of Mongoose, so he wrote to the Mongoose Sales Co, Delhi, saying "Please send me a Mongoose, and while you're at it please add another one"

    The only hold up is whether to use the Nordic spelling "eck" or "ack". As we all know "trek" implies qualities of boldness, braveness; the qualities of the Vikings who invaded every corner of Britain and fiexd au the women. (Even Turbo is 15% Viking DNA) The problem was that Lars Larssen was on the Tribunal which made the Nobel decisions. Lars and his brother Knud Bransson had been on an outback trip in a hired Fiat Motorhome and decided to shoot up the Gunbarrel Highway for a look; they fuelled up in the Alice and sure enough there they were without food and water, and barely alive when our old mate OT flashed by in his MAN with 8 tonnes of Cat parts on the back and just yanked on his air horn. They traced his registration number.

As we know, after a cerain age, a woman's skin is like sandpaper, and Onesie in doing the research noted that a makeup mix of sand and cement and a flesh coloured dye, gave a woman's face a glistening 17 year old appearance.

    Yes, serious issue; I'm looking for the radar pages also. It may be temporary, but then again it may be to cover themselves. In Victoria for about five times in a row they have predicted disastrous storms to hit. They've broadcast that through Melbourne media and each time Melbourne Radar shows the storm coming in from SA but passing through the north of the State. In the last few days the Radars went off and the predicted storm was just winds around 80 km/hr.
