To Insider,
Once more you continue to peddle the crap line that Lucky Luke owns half the airport. When will you accept and understand that your mate owns approximately 150m of land on which the east west runway runs that is not half the airport. You continue to push the issue and maybe the airport owner may decide that she no longer requires the bit of land so your matey Lucky will have absoloutly nothing to do with the airport at all.
Maybe the owner should claim her rights of that part of the east west runway afterall it was her family property who sold the eastern property originally with the proviso that the east west runway would always be available to the airport.
If the ties are cut with the east west section and the fence put back in place his property has absoloutly nothing to do with aviation and lets not get carried away because he has had the rock pickers up there preparing for a dirt dart landing area he still needs the apppropriate approvals to use his farmland and the objections will come heavy for a person who has pleaded guilty to unsafe opeations and CASA consider a danger to aviation operations. By the time hes finished he will be grey old and broke.

Here here inthefluffy!!
Insider has been pushing this crap in relation to the aero club for some time now and hasnt got the balls to say what it is brewing.
We all now know Insider is no more than a s**t stirring ar*****e who hasnt got anything better to do with his time.
It must be apparent to many now where the problem lies at the airport and it is not with the aero club and other aviators but those trouble making dirt darts friendly with Lucky.

This thread is going nowhere!

I suggest that this thread is going nowhere. The INSIDER has told us nothing of any substance. Others have resorted to slanging off at him in frustration (self included).

The problems at YBRS will continue as long as Unlucky Luke draws breath. Sadly causing others grief has become a way of life for this person.

As for the Aero Club, it will continue in its own way. It remains a collection of diverse flying enthusiasts. For all its faults it still offers its members a place to meet and share their passion for flying. I will renew my membership and my support for the committee.

Thumbs down Geelong Aero Club - Membership open to Thugs Only!

inthefluffystuff
Everyone renewed there membership ‘What a Joke!’ Everyone knows that the membership numbers have been in decline over the past 3 years.
The club is struggling to get half a dozen cars parked in there car park on a Saturday night! – That’s if you’re INVITED so you can get pass the trespasses prosecute signs!
Hey! I hear shadow boxer Tyack was out swinging punches on the weekend, hey old man when are your balls scheduled to drop. Take off your nappy and Grow up, or take your bat and ball and go home! Obviously not the way to treat some one that owns part of the airfield.
Its bad enough with the amount of small airfields closing around the country due to housing developments ect... Than some D#*k H#*d upsetting the owners and the neighbours who will eventually all pack it in and close the airfield.

You profess to be well informed of the situation at YBRS so lets cut the bull**** and have a little confirmation of that.
How much of the airfield does the neighbour own?
I was led to believe the only part of the airfield on his land was the eastern end of the E/W runway which is about 170mtr of the 450mtr, is this correct?
Do you know what the punch up was about and who threw the first punch?
Why do you say the Geelong Aero club was involved? I believe that some of the airport users were carrying out maintenance cutting the grass on the runways not the club.
Some of the airport users involved are Geelong Aero Club Members and some are also members of the ultralite association, the Geelong Model Aircraft club, the Sporting Shooters association, the Geelong MG car Club etc. so if it’s guilt by association why not include the other clubs?
What is the crisis situation at the club?
I believe at a meeting last night it was reported that the membership is on the rise and the financial situation was extremely healthy.
Of course this will be verified at the AGM next Saturday night.
I am doubtful that you were ever a member of the Geelong Aero Club and ask what years you were a member and who were the committee members/office bearers during your membership?
I have not attempted to malign or berate you in the above and it will be interesting to see if you can respond in the same manner as the answers you provide will be an indication of you’re knowledge of the true situation at YBRS.

It’s a pity the Geelong Aero Club only has 30 or so turn up on Saturday night and merely serves about 25 meals so why not drop in to count the cars instead of doing a drive by and that would make 26 meals?
You’re right it is a shame the amount of small airports closing around the country and if some of the people who post on this site have their way YBRS would be on that list.
The reasons for the signs is to attempt to keep unauthorised persons off the airport, surely you don’t believe the general public should be allowed to wander around the airport as they wish.
It must be remembered both the airfield and the Aero Club are private property and the owners have the same right as you or anyone else to refuse entry onto their respective private properties.
In relation to the shadow boxing, can you be more specific as to this activity and which owner and neighbour were upset?
I would be more than appreciative if your reply was more genteel than your normal writings as believe it or not some of us are not gutter dwellers.
Oh I forgot to mention the Sunday luncheon BBQ at YBRS, this is a well patronised event with many flying in (listen to 119.0) and all are welcome 12.00 start.

Pol you are a joke and the crew you represent are nothing but greedy profit mongers no wonder the club is in crisis with this lot scheming in the background ........ self gratifying in the little so called clubhouse a club is a place for like minded people to get together not a place to plan the demise of neighboring business people and land owners and slowly decay the family Field of forty five years you lot should be ashamed of your actions and the clubs demise will be proof of this in the short term and yes i was a happy member of the club for many years and i will not go near it till the place takes a U turn in the beliefs behind the club and as i have said many times before the whole situation has ruined YBRS reputation.
I was doing some flights from Canberra to Wangaratta last week and as usual having a coffee with the local crew and what was the talk when i said i was from Geelong of course the bull**** that has been going on for years now and is really starting to take its toll of late on all concerned so pol go and jump back in the hole you crawled out of you lot deserve everything you get

“cut the bull**** and have a little confirmation”
”30 or so turn up on Saturday” – What Saturday night are you referring to?,
Last time I was at the club when there were 30 or so in the room was the fly in!
What a dismal success that was – most Saturday nights there is no one in the club room at all after 7.30pm, they have all gone home to get a proper meal.
“25 Meals”, what are you counting – the peas on the plate!!
“People who post on this site have their way YBRS would be on that list” - don’t know of any real aviator on this site that would like to see any country airfield closed.
I have seen however a number of attempts by individuals such as Tyack and Hawke lobbying council in an attempt to close parts of YBRS and excluding members of the aviation community – Crazy Stuff -
”The reasons for the signs is to attempt to keep unauthorised persons off the airport, surely you don’t believe the general public should be allowed to wander around the airport as they wish” and all the time that I have been in attendance I have never seen a problem with the public wandering around willy nilly!
I question why they have recently been put up around the airfield and in particular why signs in front of the club rooms – which is not a part of the airfield, and is a clear sign of the Aero club trying to make themselves feel important by only accepting people in by the special “Invitation”
“all are welcome 12.00 start”. It appears not!
(Shadow Boxing –To fight with ones self)
This statement is self explanatory, Tyack is not an owner and by throwing punches, the only real person is his hurting is himself and the clubs reputation.
“some of us are not gutter dwellers” Is your memory already that faded, 13 minutes “cut the bull****”
- Pol it might be a good idea to go back and read your own posts –
“guess the dickheads have gone to ground Pol” 4th June 20064th June 2006,
ME THINKS LITTLE FINGERS AND MATCHES “where was Dancing Boy at the time?’’ 15th May 2006 (fairly insulting accusation)
“HO HO HO THIS D*CKHEAD HAS TO GO” 23rd April 2005
Trashy I must say!!
And I don’t profess to be a member of ‘The Thug Club’ or was that ‘Fight Club’
While I am at it I might as well hep some of Pol’s questions directed at the insider
Q: “How much of the airfield does the neighbour own?”
A: I think it’s about 50 hectares give or take 1 or 2, including the threshold for 36 & I have not had the ruler out in regards to 08 / 26. That is, but an integral part of the airfield nevertheless that was the original plan wasn’t to out the skydivers take the land and then out Begg by default. Lucky Luke likes aviation!
Q: “who threw the first punch?”
A: I have known Lucky and Tyack for some time, and have found, Lucky to be the last person in the world to act aggressively. Tyack on the other hand is a different story, one just has to read the local paper to see that he is even supporting irresponsible dog owners – I wonder who really needs to take reasonability for there members and who needs to be muzzled?
“ultralite association, the Geelong Model Aircraft club, the Sporting Shooters association, the Geelong MG car Club” – you forgot the cycling club who pass by, 13th Beach SLCC who were out surfing at the time, grazing cattle & migrating birds – Oh please!
Q: “What is the crisis situation at the club?”
A: Clearly the motives by some of the club members have already been highlighted and it’s bringing the whole club down. As a result, people like who like all forms of aviation like myself have left and moved there flying elsewhere. Just take a visit to Lethbridge to see how many members have moved there.
Pol – Its time you get a grip on reality before there is no were left to fly on the peninsula.

And the circus go,s on and on and on and on...... no wonder no one go,s near the joint anymore they will probably sue you for breathing the air LOL ...............we do all realize that these guys are actually adults playing games for profit with peoples lives and assets like i have said many times before a lawyers picnic in the making and at the end of the day it will become a DZ again it,s just a matter of time it,s the only way it,s viable financially with a ancillary use as GA and ultralights i can remember a couple of years ago even at this time of the year YBRS was a buzz with movements and the car park was full all day even in the winter and there was work a plenty for all and people where making money and the airport was being improved all the time what is it now it,s a joke with the whole place with a big Grey cloud over it starting to slowly rot with the stench starting to waft far a Field what a disgrace to wittiness and such a waste of time and oppurtunity and money for all involved

You’re just another one of the left overs from the pilots strike has beens, angry with a bitter taste in the mouth and an axe to grind.
You unleash your wrath against all that may be in opposition to your operation in an attempt to hide your inadequacy as a pilot and a businessman and your unwillingness to admit that the only person that contributed to your demise to a two bit joy flight operation WAS YOU.
Do I have remind you that the brag was, the first time lucky was punched in the mouth was at Torquay airfield.
Your words may ring true to some but not those that know you have a vested interest in the demise of YBRS.

In Side Her

Hell you were so right the area was full of grey today, thought the inside her was a great predictor but no lucky was up on his PADDOCK (you know not an AIRFIELD a Bloo*y PADDOCK) and the GREY it was just tears I thought it was rain and the doom was from an ex Captain (sorry never made it that far) that was the true grey, anger at getting it so wrong.

But these chappies do not tell the truth they spread little ok ok it's big fibs to try and gain some support, try wearing the chappies instead you may make yourselves happy somehow.

Good to see ya on board POL i know it,s hard to swallow your pride but in this case the rats have been leaving the ship for the past 18 months and it,s only the profit mongers left (some club hey ) anyway pol wont be long and we might get back to some normality but sadly it could take quite a few years to repair the damage done by so few but affecting so many as they say karma will win in the end always do,s

AGM this week.

The AGM is this week. Don't expect any wholesale changes of office. As with most clubs the same minority does the work.

Looking Good for 07-08.

I agree. The mood is very positive with a good turn up at the AGM. The new initiatives for this year have been well received. I didn't detect any angst or uneasiness within the membership. Seems the INSIDER is **** stiring with little credibility.
I enjoyed chatting to members and friends I haven't seen for a while. Even won the raffle which pleased the other half.
Cheers.
