Why not let us all know? If it's legal it will be off interest - makes this forum useful.

You unconsciously think that GFA members and Australian glider pilots are the same thing. When you get over that we might make some progress. How does a glider pilot operate outside the GFA? I have a C cert, motorglider endorsement and an unrestricted RAA license. Let's suppose I won a million dollars, decided to buy my own aircraft, and go gliding outside the GFA. How would this actually work? Who would do my check flights etc? And is there a standard process CASA follows, or is it decided on a case-by-case basis? It seems the simplest path would be to buy a light self launcher and register it RAA. As we all know, those dangerous little ultralight things use very unreliable engines, so engine failures may be common :) Cheers, Al _____ _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list Aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring
