I have a photo from my aircraft showing raa sticker (as required) wiith 544kg as the legal weight. (from Raa-aus). Jared needs to read the previous requirements and publish his reasons.

added a "camel hump" on the back of the existing fuel tanks...fibreglass with connecting holes to existing tank. Went from 50lts to 94 lts...because COG is over the wheel centres the change to cog was minimal, still within spec. Made the Aircraft a longer distance machine... eg..brakon hill from Goulburn...fuel at Griffith and Ivanhoe... The pic shows the pass side, the pilots side had a similar extension. Very important to use the right ester as one ius fuel safe and the other breaks down. Cant remember which one I used but it lasted a number of years before I sold it and no sign of breakdown or trouble.

What is their reasoning, Mine was registered at 544 and I had no problems flying 2 up with solid built people. Mine was bought as 544, registered for years at 544. I extended the fuel tank to 90 lts. Extra weight not a problem. Flew all over the state, flew to cameron corner, plane performed great. Someone is having a moment at Raa aus.

just give 3 calls...downwind, base, and final gives everyone your location. Much safer. After va few close calls when only one call given, I always use 3. You cant wear your radio out and 3 calls can save your a...s

been tried a while ago, died a death for some reason. Ian (admin) may have the details. Be nice to have but if wishes were dollars etc etc

Make all the calls. If they know where you are then it makes it safer for you and them. I had a couple of close calls because trainees from city based schools did not make calls and I only avoided a collision because I was lucky enough to see them. Safety first, make all calls even if some consider it excessive.

Merge the two Ian, sounds reasonable given your post at the start of the topic.

Sorry Turbs, a lot more than 8 RA owners at Goulburn when owned by council, also an RA and GA school (busy most of the time), many RA aircraft in hangers, and a good feel to the airfield. Place went to crap after the council sold it. The owner tried to victimise and blackmail hanger owners, placed restrictions on runway usage etc etc.

If you wish your children to step outside the state funded system then you should have to pay. Not the state. Your choice to step aside, you pay. Not me, not other peole who do not have kids at private schools, you. Simple really. If you dont like the public system then you choose the private system, just dont ask us to pay for it.

used to practice them all the time, power off and on, also had a biennial test that involved recovery from stalls in steep turns, good fun

If there is a second runway at an angle to the one used for take off, surely that can be used to lessen the angle of turnback

Unfortunately I cannot but member 10.5 or Volksy68 may have that information. I was dealing with a few issues at the time.

The instuctions for assembly show the front forks the other way.

The airpost was gifted to the people of Goulburn by The Poidevan family on the condition that it remain an airport indefinitely. The council sold the airport to a private operator aginst the wishes of the users and the goulburn people in general in an obvious money grab. The routine upkeep was offered to be done by the users of the airport but money and alleged self interest bypassed the locals. I dont know the wording of the deed of gift but I am sure someone has a copy. Since being taken over by the p[rivate operator, the airport has been semi run down and a state of aggravation has existed between the users and the owner.

for those of us not getting sport pilot, WHO is the new CEO and HAVE THEY BEEN SOLD>>> Its a simple question without going all over the paddock...
