How many Flight Safety magazines can you read?

[YPJT]

Well it appears that CASA has doubled up on this months Flight Safety crash comic and sent two copies out to every ARN holder. :ugh:

[the wizard of auz]

Yup, I got two as well........ also got a bill for $480 for my AOC, no change, renewal.
thieving skunks. :mad:

[Staticport]

I only got one...unlucky!

[Cessna Capt]

CASA has the time to send out 2 mags, but it takes them months to send out my licence after a CIR renewal which i've payed for. Maybe they might send me 2 licences

[VH-XXX]

I don't know of anyone yet (other than those here) who got 2. Perhaps they are trying to tell you something...

[kingRB]

I feel left out, I only got one :(

[Bla Bla Bla]

Anyone know what Casa stands for I bet there's loads I have not heard.


c#$%s against sensible aviation, is the only one I know, there must be more.

[kellykelpie]

I got two and I live in Singapore! Both sent up here and arrived the same day.

[PyroTek]

only one here, unless the kids next door stole the other copy!:}

[YoDawg]

Some of the articles on engineering aspects of GA are worth reading.

As for the rest, do they still fill it with "interesting" articles on cabin trolley accidents and galley dramas?

Some time ago, it went from a straight-forward "Crash Comic" to being full of touchy feely articles on cabin tray-table mishaps, trolley brake overheats, quizzes and too much other miscellaneous crap to cover adequately here...... did I miss anything?

"What is the Safety message to be inferred from this photograph?"

Followed by this week's best five inane attempts at Gary Larson humour by private pilots, none of which, none of which is actually humourous or related to safety. Best entry wins $50 worth of CASA "safety products".... wtf??? Does he mean a case of Flying Frangers? Now that'd be handy.

The Flight Safety mag used to be full of accounts, state by state, on all the latest accidents including injury/fatality count and a good description of what happened, if they knew. You could learn something about flying by reading them. The current mag is a sad shadow of its former self. In describing it, I'm tempted to use the word "gay" but it's so un-PC these days... :rolleyes:

[Awol57]

Ha, you all got ripped off. I got 3.

The postie struggled to jam them into the letter box.

[ad-astra]

My shredder will be working overtime.
The FS magazine arrives, I rip the address page off the cover and shred it, and turf the uselss piece of advertising in the bin.

[alphacentauri]

Geez AWOL, now you are going to have to split your time equally between reading 'Flight Safety' mags and conquering Guitar Hero 5..!!! hahahaha :E:E

[Awol57]

Guitar hero everytime, come on you know me!!

[Bla Bla Bla]

I got just the one copy and feel quite bitter about it, I mean four copies is a matching set of place mats!

[Towering Q]

2 for me as well. Always a good read with Weetbix in the morning, assuming there's no newspaper or Target catalogues lying around.

[Led Zep]

I got two of the darn things!

[Icefire]

I got 2 as well. Very handy though. One for the inside bog and the other for the outside bog.

[Jay Bo]

:{:{:{ Where's mine:{:{:{
CASA doesnt love me anymore

[brns2]

I was mailed 2 also! At least i can read it twice

[Pinky the pilot]

Also two of the verdammt things!:ugh: Both arrived together as well.

Memo to CASA;
Will you (expletives deleted) please do all of us a favour, get your (another expletive deleted) in a pile and bring back the old, much respected and informative Aviation Safety Digest :ok:

Mac Job, where are you??????:confused:

[Mr. Hat]

Towering Q are you like for hotties in the Target catlogue again?

[my oleo is extended]

The picture on the front cover of Flight Safety is the 'Screaming Skull' looking at the aviation world through his 'safety eyes' !!
Or perhaps it is an advertisement for what goodies you can buy from 'certain electronic stores' ??

[Aerohooligan]

I should be so lucky...in the six and half years I have had an ARN, I have NEVER ONCE received Flight Safety. I didn't even know I was supposed to be getting it until six months ago. :}

[b_sta]

Meanwhile I normally just receive the one each month, but this month haven't received any? :ugh:

[goin'flyin]

You lot should all think yourselves lucky. I didn't get one at all :{

Wiz - only $480 for your AOC renewal, i just got charged $640 for a check pilot renewal, last time it cost me $400ish, but they just signed the piece of paper, this time they actually hopped in the plane and observed some flying so that means they can charge more. Maybe i should send them a bill for the aircraft time. :ugh:

[SM227]

I should be so lucky...in the six and half years I have had an ARN, I have NEVER ONCE received Flight Safety. I didn't even know I was supposed to be getting it until six months ago

So your sposed to get the mag (for free?) if you have an ARN? All these years I have been missing out!:{ I do enjoy the read, Ill have to get onto somebody about it! :8

[aussie027]

I got 2 as well, reading one the other went into recycling as I dont know anyone else who would be interested in reading it. More taxpayers money wasted on duplicate postage.:ugh::ugh::mad:

[Long John Silver]

CASA will be increasing the licence and medical fees in the 09/10 financial year by 50% due to increased printing costs of the flight safety magazine. :ok:

I'd happily trade in one of the several 73 page magazines I recieved for a free 1 page copy of my medical next year....:suspect:

[sockedunnecessarily]

We apologise for that inconvenience it was human error
CASA, if I make a simple human error then you fail me on my IR renewal.

What's good for the goose.....

[Arnold E]

2 for me:ok::ok:

[XanaduX]

I only got one copy, but will read it twice so I won't feel left out! :E

[Arnold E]

LJS I hope you are joking about the increase in price of a medical next year:E:E

[Wally Mk2]

I've had 2 before but not of late. Me thinks they send multiple ones out to those that have submitted the most ESIR's:-)

I tell you what though my knowledge of AD's etc of A/C greater than 5700kg has improved out of sight:-) Am now keen to turn a spanner on a Jumbo Jet:-)

One good thing about the FS Mag is if you find a nice quite place in the sun in front of a window on a cold day you can be asleep in oh around 5 mins reading most of the feet putting to sleep material in there:-) Any other issues that get doubled up keep me warm when the sun is not out, by way of stuffing them into my wood heater where they serve the most use:-)

Bring back the real deal, not the politically correct gay version we see these days but I guess CASA know best right?:-(
