For all the airline pilots out there: With the 787 being a mostly carbon
fuselage, anyone know what the increase in radiation dose is to crew and
passengers. The old ali jets would have filtered (attenuated) some rays but
carbon is totally radiolucent. Anyone ever questioned this?

Hi Jim,
Exposure, as you know, is a function of altitude, time at altitude, latitude
and as with the B787, structure.
So if you#39;re a long- haul pilot flying over the poles (eg. Asia to the USA)
in a B787 the radiation dosage should be higher.

Hi folks
The updated weekend forecast is available at http://the-white-knight-speaks.blogspot.com.au
and it should be a good weekend, but now with some cloud possible on
both days. Take your winter woolies with you though, as the nights
are going to be cold!!!
Should we all cheer because these guys find an expensive fix for a problem that
probably won't affect anyone who doesn't thrash the crap out of a 40 year old
glider never really intended for aeros?

Ah yes, good point Tom. Although most of the stuff they do is low speed dives
in formation with one usually inverted. The clips of their aeros are quite
gentle in reality.
I was actually just addressing the earlier question “Aren't Blaniks grounded?”

Hi Carl,
We employed ARMCOM to install the new Llewellyn mod which replaces all of
the critical parts in the wing spa and tail plane.
The European mod does not replace these parts but only modifies the first
could of feet of the wing spa.
The most critical thing about this is a Blanik
Realistic suggestions Tim

Seems it won't be much use to anyone unless you also have a CASA pilot
licence. Makes it expensive if all you want is a gliding licence. There
will also be a number of people flying currently who would not pass a
I'm not sure how you drew that conclusion Dave, I don't see any
requirement there for a GA licence.
Most other countries won't give you a foreign cert without a class 2
medical so if we are to be recognized by their authority (the problem
at the moment) that requirement seems reasonable.

Looks like this is very close to what people have been after for a long time -
a way to get a license that is recognised in europe - where a Class 2 medical
is required no matter which country you get licensed in.
I read this as if you have the new GFA certificate/license which can't be ICAO
On the face of it, it seems like a good idea. I watch with interest.
Re requirements for a Class 2 medical, not onerous either and an
opportunity/prompt to keep yourself healthy!
There will also be a number of people flying currently who would not
pass a Class 2 medical.
If that is the case,
