First point is that a lot of the gliders listed here have subsequently been registered under part 47, just that CASA, for some inexplicable reason, hasn't seen fit to remove them from this list, mine is one of them.
Second point is that GFA will not issue a Form 2 to any glider that has a cancelled registration and therefore no Certificate of Airworthiness, and John Viney is well aware of all of them. Lastly, flying an unregistered aircraft is illegal and will attract more than "penalty points", as quoted on the CASA website: "Flying an unregistered aircraft is an act punishable by law with up 2 years of imprisonment."

There must be fifty (50)gliders listed ! I am sure that there must be some owners/ syndicate owners unaware of this.The list can be viewed by going to www.casa.gov.au/ quick links / Aircraft register / Aircraft registrations cancelled by CASA. I feel that this should be highlighted some how as I am sure that flying an unregistered aircraft/glider will attract "Penalty points" (CASA speak for fine) and am not sure about Insurance.
