Hi Folks,
I was ramp checked on Sunday morning flying PA25 BMF at Beverley by a CASA
Inspector (paid double time no doubt). He went through an extensive
checklist of required items, and requested sighting of the aircraft's
Maintenance Release and the POH. Luckily I had my Licence and Medical
John,
thanks for the heads up.
We had the CASA Drugs and Alcohol tester turn up on a Wednesday to test us,
finding the gate closed they phoned the contact number to find out that we
usually
only operate on weekends; 2 minutes of pre trip Internet research would have
saved
them a trip.
CASA Brisbane Field Office have recently audited our tugs’ log books and
maintenance releases.

Did the CASA official provide proof of his own identity?
I think that you would be within your rights to at least record the name of the
officer doing the ramp check and what transpired in case anything went pear
shaped.
In today's age, how would you know you're not dealing with someone who
RAMP. Another US english expression amongst others sneaking into our
language. Ugh!
Those areas have always looked pretty flat to me.
It seems to have started off meaning the boarding stairs or ramp (e.g. ramp
ceremony) and then took over the whole tarmac/departure area.

We could use the British apron or tarmac both of which are also
inappropriate in describing that area.
CASA probably uses ramp because that's what the FAA calls it.
Technically a ramp check in the USA is probably unconstitutional as
for the authorities to stop and check you while going about
Mike, I would have to disagree with your preference for ramp.
Given the general architecture of airport terminals and the many definitions
and etymology given in a decent dictionary for the word apron, apron would
seem to me to be the most appropriate/available of the words that can be
used
Whilstat Mindendelivering an experimental glider a couple of years ago to it's
new owner, I met an FAA airworthiness man.
Shoved the logbook at him and called out ramp check!. He didn't want to do
it, but I asked if he could let me know if I was prepared for one.
All was good. Everyone had a
Wilbur and Orville invented the airplane so that's what it should
be called IMO. I'll go along with ramp too.
They did what?
I can't think of one thing that they invented.
Perhaps they were the first to achieve sustainable, controlled, powered flight.
Maybe I can think of things they
Actually they did invent one thing. The three axis control system. Unlike their
popular success - powered flight, the 3 axis system was invented by them a year
earlier. The modern 3 axis has one variation on their patent, it uses ailerons
instead of warping the wings. Like all inventions, each

They certainly worked hard at becoming know as the fathers of aviation
