Same as the NT

RV6

The NT Gov (Labor Bastards) tried to do this earlier this year at Katherine George. It was supposedly on behalf of the LOCALS who did'nt want the noisy, smelly aeropales flying in thier air, unless of course you pay them to do it.

The Fed Gov stepped in ant told them to piss it off right quick, and from the speed which the NT Loonies did, it would appear that the Feds were right.

How about you get onto them and find out if the attempt is LEGAL under fed laws, as it is my understanding that once you go above the hight of the trees (and I know they are bloody big in that part of the SW) its not state owned anymore. ie Fed laws for objects higher than 360ft above terrain.

There was a thread on the Katherine Airspace issue which may contain some ammo for you if you go to the meeting. maybe some one can recall its name, something like "Katherine George Airspace Closure" from about 6 months ago.

All the best.

Bet you are glad your not a Glassair, hot bottom when they slide.
