.....Unfortunately the exoskeleton started to rust out and Turbos movements became more and more sluggish to the point where the film crews had to speed up the film to keep the story line. It didn't go well if the Star sas "What are you pointing at Turbo", and turns around to find Turbo's hand still firmly in his pocket. He sold the rusting EX to a Chinese, Dimsim Wao who wanted to mass poduce them and sell them to Americans who were having difficulty domestically. In the meantime the SOS group were getting hungry so Capp y went out and shot a Gnu just as he used to do on the Khyber. As he came into camp with the gutted and skin Gnu over his shoulder, CT loudly proclaimed "You idiot! Don't you know Gnu's are sacred around here these days!" "What Gnu?!" replied Cappy, this is a rabbit! CT who knew a rabbit when he saw one realised what Cappy had, necessarily done, and said "...

They were embedded in the Indian SOS as chicken stranglers, and were quietly popping off Pakistanis on the Northwest Face and leaving no trace ...............

....of all the equipment in the 908 Kenworth, the most valuable asset was your town. "Next time you are on the road" he said "and an an NHVR, turns on his little Jabiru flashing light, his little "tick", "Tick", "tick" siren and pulls you over on a crest, just as he gets to thge door wave your towel out the window. You'll never see him again!" Meanwhile down on the India/Pakistan border, 21 bright green turbans appeared above the rocks. One minute they would be facing towards the Indians, next minute facing each other, next minute facing away from the fireground and then back facing the Indians. They only did this once because a P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P broke out from Sniper CT, a few unfurles 6 metre green strips of silk floated across the lines and it looked like game, set and match except ...........................

.......they had eliminated the Great Capitan!; scourge of the Punjab and Khyber Pass! However, those of us who serve with him know his towell smells like a pack of hyena after they've been feasting on the rotting carcass of an elephant. The towell was still there and it was noted that not one Pakistani or Chinese Aircraft (China was supporting both sides) aircraft flew anywhere near it. Those in the trenches downwind knew why; it was the old Khyber Towell trick and worked ........

.....have the equivalent of a Telephone Box comnversation. This was difficult because the civvy OT had been so reliable. Could it be that he had been stitched up?, Could it be that he loaders had filled the boxes with the easily recognisable Kalgoolie sand? Or Could OT have been the victim of fowl play? As Turbo and Cappt locked OT in the Dunny they both agreed this wasn't like the Khyber which was an ANZAC operation where NZ Bob supplied stores like clockwork, but.........

.........Raj, who had left his Kenworth at Moree and was flying back to India to become a fighter pilot. There were actually 387 others in blue singlets and shorts, all going home to become fighter pilots and there were Kenworths parked up the full length of the Newell and Bruce Highways. And that's not all; all the Roadhouses that served the munchy curry that gave you the runs on a long trips, leading to aboriginal site names being replaced by names like "Whiteass Pass" were gone to fight in the Indian Army. "Walruss Team 6" had been carefully selected, so Cappy and Turbo could be Joint 3 Star Generals, not required on the front line, and The Observation Officer was bull who given a weird looking grey thing and a pair of Chinese binoculars. bull was a natural of course because you only had to look at the dilapidated aircraft he flew to know he could keep anything flying. Sergeant CT was in charge of the Snipers, and RSM One Track was in charge of logistics, transport and purchasing. As WT6 left Australia ..........

........use at the Transport Legend Awards, but came in handy at the King's Coronation. In fact he carried two packs of business cards, one in each pocket, but the problem was remembering which card was which and there was that very embarrassing night at the 2024 Art Awards when he pulled out his humility card and gave it to the Governor. "Doo We keneau you? asked the Governor and Turbo had to pretend to be about to throw up and excused himself only to run into ...............

Focus on how many are in RAA, many basic aircraft are popular in other countries. We have to focus on the ones that are legal to fly here.
-
No point in silly trolling.
-
No standards, no oversight, make your own decisions, at your own risk...............doesn't sound like the CASA I know.
-
Flying in Australia legally, under 95.10 regulation?
-
RAA aircraft are only allowed to fly if they can achieve the designated stall speed range in order that landing collisions will result in a lower level of damage/injuries. In this case the structure isn't going to be redesigned, tested and rebuilt to GA standards and stall speeds, so there's no rabbit hole there.
-
It's not a liability argument, its very unlikely that an aircraft which has been grounded on safety grounds will be given a tick by another Administrator if they are given the original reasons yet here we've seen irrelevant documents posted suggesting it can be done.
-
There's a lot of skipping around going on here; either a refused RAA Aircraft CAN be flown in SAAA or another category or it can't. The owner said 21 hours ago(these times will change as time goes on): "I believe the 95-10 Wing Loading" is not applicable to VH Experimental. Am I wrong?" 21 hours a document was posted: SAAA Controlled Document IppGen008-001 headed Convert RAAS amateur - built to VH Experimental. This was a general advice information paper which did not refer to cases such as where RAA has refused to approve/register and aicraft on safety grounds. There was no mention that an aircraft had been refused on safety grounds, no suggestion that this would be advised to SAAA/CASA. At 19 hours ago the owner said the advice which was being posted "does what is needed" Your advice, your responsibility. If CASA rejects this point blank, what are you going to tell the owner?
-
Well the owner should be told that rather than be given a different story.
-
So are you saying that if you have an aircraft rejected on the grounds of safety by Recreational Aviation Australia Ltd, you just take it to SAAA and they will register it?

I think you've summed things up very well. What's going on certainly doesn't have much to do with RAA documentation.
-
It might explain a subject very well, but when you are talking about an aircraft which has been refused registration for, as far as I remember, over a decade then it's best for the person involved to be contacting the organization responsible for registration rather than a third party who may not have an "Amendmment", "Sunset Clause" "Proviso" or any number of items the outside party might have missed in his opinion.
-
Not necessarily, but certainly it's not safe to provide advice from third party documents.
-
You're quoting an SAAA document there.
-
No it was more based on the distances, however RAA has stuck with aircraft ownership and maintenance from the AUF days so an owner pays for any mistakes in the aircraft specification or design, and pays the full cost of maintanance, annuals etc. where by a hiring regime/aircraft on the flight line you may be paying for only 100th of those costs.
