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

      Hi all,

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
