The most intuitive and capable person I've ever met whilst flying
AEFs was asked "what kind of work to you do". She replied "I train
horses" and it showed in the almost natural way she handled the
controls. It works both ways.

That's terrible.

death!!!
I hope jet proofing the animals

I remember when I did my Silver C distance in an ES59 Arrow (GNF) many
moons ago.
The outlanding paddock (a lovely stubble paddock, flat as a billiard
table) was right next to town of Crystal Brook (galvanized iron fences
were on one side of the paddock).

A glider pilot and balloonist friend of mine back in Germany drove his hot air
ballon not too high across a farm with their prized stud pig in the yard. When
he lit the burner, the pig did a flick roll and died of a hard attack. It cost
my friend dearly. Rgds - Rolf

Well said Cath, too many horse owners take a hands off approach re
conditioning, they are very smart and can be conditioned to all manner of loud
noises, crowds, movements - even riots and police roles, noisy mines and
quarries. Horses also get bored - they like activity and stimulation.

All of this is a matter of conditioning for the horses. I used to take my
horse gliding. Not kidding. He was great for clearing the sheep off the
runway. He would stand at the launch point and watch the gliders launch and
land.Then again, this horse lived in a paddock at North Glenelg al
Hi;
I image that in this case we would be talking about torts. A pilot does not
have to be in violation of any la or regulation to be subject to a tort
(just ask anybody in business). The fact that a glider is in the air is
irrelevant.

that ever been raised as an argument to stop them flying over the Melbourne

Horsies and their owners are a real problem for outlandings. Around
the Mt Tambourine area in QLD, you are warned never ever to land in
anything other than a designated outlanding area. In the UK they
suggest that if a paddock has horses in it and the next best option is
flying into the side of a m

OK, I had better explain the circumstances of the question regarding the

Firstly, he wasn't a neighbour, but a friend who lived about 20 km
