Making his own strip??
So he plans to make his own Nth Sth strip? Like to see him get a council permit to do that! Oh, sorry I forgot. McWilliam doesn't need council permission he just does what he wants to anyhow.

Airstrip assault charge
A dispute between Geelong Aero Club and neighbouring property owner Luke McWilliam has resulted in Mr McWilliam being charged with unlawful assault.
Mr McWilliam, 39 of Barwon Heads Rd Connewarre, is alleged to have struck 61 YEAR OLD Aero Club volunteer trying to mow a section of airstrip which juts on to Mr McWilliams land.
During a contest mention in the Geelong Magistrates Court yesterday, police prosecutor Senior Constable Kylie Jane said on July 1 a working bee was held at Barwon Heads Airport.
She said volunteer Leslie Tyack was helping other volunteers to mow the runway to speed up the process so planes could land.
Sen-Constable Jane said that by necessity the victim was mowing the small section of runway which is on Mr McWillian’s land.
“About 10.15 am Mr McWilliam walked briskly up to Mr Tyack who was operating a ride-on mower she said “He grabbed Mr Tyack by the left shoulder and the victim ignored him”.
“Mr McWilliam then grabbed the victim again with force and told him t “Get off my f---ing property”.
“Mr Tyack stopped the mower and explained he was cutting the grass to make it safe”.
Sen-Counstable Jane said Mr McWilliam angrily repeated his demand for Mr Tyack to get off his property and threw a punch.
“The victim put up his left arm to fend off the impact and received a glancing blow to the left side of his jaw”, she said.
Mr Tyack half rose from the mower and struck Mr McWilliam to the face.
“The victim told Mr McWilliam he was gutless hitting someone almost twice his age who was sitting down”.
The prosecutor said Mr McWilliam then stepped back and started videoing everything that was going on.
Mr McWilliam sporting a bloodied lip later went to Torquay police station to report the matter.
He denied assaulting anyone and gave a different version of events.
Magistrate Ian Von Einem adjourned the matter for a contested hearing on March 5, 2008
insider what was that you said about a thug club???

Well Well Well
Who would have thought the boy had a viscous bone in his body, he’s such a nice quiet understanding young chap and generous to boot.
Just goes to show one can never tell and to think he had ACCC and the insider fooled.
What else can I say boys other than?
“You Little Ripper”
Ha

WTF?????
JEEEESSSSUUSSS AITCH KAAAAAARRRRRIIIIST!!!! Yeah Don't ave a spell checker aye!!!
What a bunch of clowns you all turned out to be!!! will you all please GROW UP just a mite. I only just stumbled onto this childish scrawl and honestly I want the last 20 minutes of my life back. That is not to say that I didn't laugh out loud a few times OR that this isn't childish scrawl also
A very wise and experienced captain once told me that there were FOUR types of people in aviation
1. Ego Maniacs
2. Criminals
3. F#%KWITS
4. ALL OF THE ABOVE
PLEASE, just let it go, prune isn't the arena to air dirty laundry like this, neither is the Magistrate's Court. Trespass is Trespass, whether you're mowing lawns or braking and entering. Knowing the already frosty relationship divulged here on prune, driving a mower over the said property is really being a stirring OLD SH&T.
ALSO, parking a caravan in the middle of the airstrip is childish and hazardous. I wouldn't call it dangerous though. If you can't see a Caravan on an airstrip from circuit height, you shouldn't be flying. Jumping through cloud is a danger however, but unfortunately the APF are so closely knit that an infringement can be wiped by buying a carton. Serious action needs to be taken by CASA, but whether this will happen is another matter.
Just some final Observations:
John Walters: Please Use Microsoft Word. The comical state of your spelling doesn't bode well for your credibility. Translation: It makes you look stoopid.
YakFiveFive: For someone who was once wanting to drop meat bombs for this company, your tune certainly changed dramatically.
Remember, the moment you walk into an Aero Club and say good morning to anyone, you have DEFINITELY upset someone else.
TO ANYONE INVOLVED IN THIS DEBACLE, MY ADVICE, LET IT GO, IT WILL DESTROY YOU AND KARMA IN AVIATION DOES EXIST, TRUST ME
I DON'T HAVE THE SLIGHTEST IDEA WHERE BARWON HEADS IS NOR DO I WANT TO KNOW!
FINALLY: BE GOOD TO YOURSELVES, AND ONE ANOTHER

You do not know where Barwon Heads is but proclaim to know ME, you did waste your twenty minutes of time!!!
Oh I forgot I did think about a position with SDC but have met a few people that know a lot about them (forget the Insider he is a stooge) and the stories were not too good at all.

Barwon Heads airport dispute continues

LUKE McWilliam, the man at the centre of a dispute over Barwon Heads airport land, has had intervention order applications struck out.
Magistrate Michael Coghlan described the applications, which called for alterations to interim orders already in place, as being an abuse of process and ordered Mr McWilliam to pay $2600 legal costs.
The court heard that Mr McWilliam took out applications against Geelong Aero Club members Les Tyack and Bryon Hawke last year.
Following a contested hearing in October, an interim order was put in place and the matter listed for hearing on February 5.
But this week Mr McWilliam took out fresh applications against the same men.
During a hearing in Geelong Magistrates' Court yesterday, Peter Burman, for Mr McWilliam, said interim orders issued in October contained some ambiguity.
``They are causing tension between the parties and need to be clarified,'' Mr Burman said.
He told the court there had been 67 incidents on the property since the orders were made and his client was requesting clarification of the wording.
``In particular a section which prohibits Mr McWilliam from `entering an active area of the airfield','' he said.
Russell Sarah, appearing for both Mr Tyack and Mr Hawke, said it was clear there was no basis for Mr McWilliam's applications and asked that matters be adjourned to their original hearing date on February 5.
Mr Sarah also asked that costs be awarded against Mr McWilliam.
Mr Coghlan said new applications could not be made because interim orders by Mr McWilliam against the same people were already in place.
He said it had also been agreed an an earlier hearing that the intervention orders would not be heard until after criminal matters against Mr McWilliam were finalised.
Nor was he prepared to change the wording of an order made by another magistrate.
``This is just another day that Mr Tyack and Mr Hawke have had to come to court legally represented,'' he said.
``I am satisfied the applications made by Mr McWilliam are without foundation.
``I am also satisfied they amount to an abuse of process, were made in bad faith and to some extent are frivolous and vexacious.''
The applications were struck out and Mr McWilliam ordered to pay both men's legal fees totalling $2600.
The original matters were adjourned for further mention on March 12.
Another Nail I would think

Gentleman I find it difficult to understand how a person can park a caravan on an active runway and not get locked up? Surely there are federal laws to protect aircraft from lunitics?
