Really? Where did you hear this from? In the old gits queue at the RTA when he was applying to keep his drivers licence
Jack,
Straight from the horse's mouth, and not from a horse's posterior, where your remarks come from.
The fact that RAOz were not really welcome is rather silly, just how you have an Oshkosh in Australia with the great political divide between RAOz (fast approaching the majority of private operations hours) and SAAA has got me tossed.
The problem is NOT with AWAL and AOPA, it is the long standing (since the inception of the AUF) divide between RAOz and SAAA is the problem.
As a fly-in, there have been almost as many GA aircraft at several NatFly's at Narromine as there were at Ausfly. As a fly-in Ausfly must be judged as a success, but as a base to build on, with the present politics, ?????
Including the post Ausfly washup.
A major national event built around NatFly has a lot more practical chance of success. If you don't understand the history of "SAAA v. The Rest" you will not understand the basis of my comments.
Tootle pip!!
