Maybee the below 103.106 point could be linked to motorgliders ?, having
specific engine operating limits and a min instrument/ indicator equipment
list..... the guff usally found in a stink wing flight manuals.
But i could be wrong, just my brain spazam for the day.

A couple more interesting possibilities I noticed are:
103.106 Some gliders may have to carry flight manuals (depending on what the
manufacturer/CASA specifies).

Subject: RE: [Aus-soaring] FW: CASA rule changes
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
From: Reg Moore
Forwarded a CASA proposal of rule making that some of you may not be aware
of. How will gliders over 600kg AUW be treated?
Probably like gliders below 600kg.
Note a quick read only.
The document refers to "aeroplanes", "gliders" and "aircraft". While part 103
doesn't define what an aeroplane is, I suspect it is defined in another part.
ie aeroplanes and gliders are both aircraft but gliders are not aeroplanes. (It
is similar to how glider/aeroplane is treated now and you could also infer this
from rules 103.286 and 103.290).
So this part applies to _all_ gliders (actually, up to 850kg currently, it
says in the preamble) and _some_ aeroplanes under 600 (650) kg
A couple more interesting possibilities I noticed are:
103.106 Some gliders may have to carry flight manuals (depending on what the
manufacturer/CASA specifies).
103.100 If your aircraft (glider) is not administered by the sporting body
(GFA) CASA will issue your "appropriate pilot qualification" (license, one
would assume. Is this so Wombat?).
This could be a way of getting a license so certain foreign countries (eg
Germany) will let Australians fly foreign registered aircraft legally.
103.198 Aerobatics allowed in (some) ultralights
Also part 103 opens the situation where a person could own 2 gliders, one
administered by GFA and one administered by themselves and consequently the
person would need to hold two different sets of flight/maintenance/operating
qualifications. Even if they were the same _type_ of glider.
