What gets me is that CASA have been told about a number of the cancellations
and have not seen fit to make any adjustments for over 12 months. I was one day
late with one of mine and I am still fighting the buggers.
If they wanted to implement a new system then at least have the staff available
to do the work.
Patch.

I was looking through the CASA website and came across a list of aircraft
that have had their registration cancelled because they have failed to complete
the new Part 47 registration. There must be fifty (50)gliders listed ! I am
sure that there must be some owners/ syndicate owners unaware of this.
Considering the several years of controversy that CASA endured to bring in
Part 47,
that seems unlikely :-)
There's a suitably impressive number of Blanik's on the list.
My hunch is that most of the aircraft in the list have either had
rego changes or have been written off. Many of the gliders are
probably sitting in their trailers derigged after their pilots have
moved on, died, etc; depending on how many years they've been
there for, they might not necessarily be economically salvageable.
