Maybe it is all about Australia NZ rivalry, Australia is first with such widely based the carbon tax, so NZ ups the ante with being first with this regulation, and proud of it obviously, given this “We are to my knowledge is the only regulator in the world to introduce an adventure aviation rule.

Mike I certainly hope they do not restrict the GFA AEF system. It is expensive enough now. You would be more familiar than I am as to the number of incidents GFA has had under the above system Rob Moore On 09/11/2011, at 10:06 AM, Mike Cleaver wom...@netspeed.com.au wrote: When it was first mooted ten years or so ago, the NZ Part 115 rule potentially would have allowed customers to purchase a ride in a net slung under a helicopter, among other weird ideas. They have toned it down a lot and basically applied it to selling a sport aviation experience to people off the street who are not capable of giving the informed consent that is an inherent part in participating in an aviation sport. Australia has had CAO 95.4.1 for glider charter flights for over 15 years, though nowadays most clubs use the air experience provisions to introduce people to gliding. And it is over 25 years since Australia followed the UK and a lot of European countries with normalised rules for passenger rides in hot air balloons, with proper rules for commercial pilot licences and certified operators. We would not call these balloon flights high risk as they are properly regulated - unlike NZ until now. However, there are still some countries and some balloon operators that do not apply safe operating rules, and they are the ones where accidents have happened and passengers killed by totally avoidable occurrences that have been improperly managed. From the latest information available, it seems my former employer has started to move forward with our proposed new rules, which will be coming from a quite different direction from our Pacific neighbours.
