What a can of worms. This is farcical.

Who perchance at AWAL is intended to "approve" the alleged "Manuals"?

What is the purpose of CASA "helping" AWAL?

Is this, when taken in conjunction with the recent ructions between CASA and the RAA, a thinly veiled attempt by CASA to destroy recreational aviation in Australia? Is the SAAA next?

Is this proposal the work of the person in CASA who allegedly believes that only military aviation and Airlines should exist in Australia? Every time I think of CASA I think of Two former airforce officers I once had to work for. They were not pleasant experiences - both had enormous chips on their shoulders and very rigid and unforgiving personalities.

By the way, would a Tiger Moth fall under the definition of "Warbird"? If so, what could possibly be the point of creating any further documentation in the form of a "manual" when everything that could possibly be said or written about this wonderful machine has already been said and written?

What about a Yak 18T? Some of those saw service with tthe Soviet airforce.

What about the Cessna 310? Didn't that see service with the US airforce as the "blue canoe"?
