Hi. Am awaiting a reply from the powers that be for your original request re

In regard to trailers, I think one of the trailers I took to the last rally
was registered. I'm not sure of the others. I found some plates so I use
them. I figure if I get sprung the

I found this interesting. When talking to Norm Block a few years ago he told
me a B767 if it could take off from Coolie full of fuel is going thru
1ft at 19mn(Mt Warning) and my experience of flying out of Coolie in
B767 was far better than this (14ft at 19nm - I was just going to
Sydney)

Maybe the 2% should do what those without a computer must do - find someone
who has a "98% system", or just read Bob Hall's summary and get a copy of the
"Reference Guide" issued by the National Airspace Implementation Group

But it is NOT everyone - and for safety issues like airspace, the

Good stuff Mike. I expect the lobbying to get stronger against the change,
and I have similarly written to the local newspaper in support of the
change. I suggest others do also, as the anti lobby needs to be balanced.
I note a few nay sayers within GFA. To them I would say this change has

I think you misunderstood Bob's reply - what he actually said was that the
educational material did not mention CTAFs and MBZs because there were no
changes in that area. He is correct, though I question the proposed "US

Adam,
you ask an interesting question to which the simple answer is: yes,
you are safe at 1' 11 miles from the airfield.
BUT...
I think if you asked them, the notion of not going out of final glide is
already a given. I am sure the club would not be happy with you 10m(18km)

Why should that be so when it has been used in the USA for donkey's years
and they have many times more traffic? I have flown in a light a/c around
Seattle and they had a glider/light a/c airfield and multiple airfields near
multiple jet ports and they all got on very well. Many more aircraft of
98% is pretty close to everyone!! :)
