Seems not all aircraft are created equal anymore...

Speaking as a simple unlawyered Bush lawyer, I don't think Victoria has any power over aviation activities whatsoever since it ceded those powers to the Commonwealth in about 1921.
In other words, it can pass all the bloody acts it wants to, but I don't believe the courts can enforce them.
I'm still scratching my head over Rocket Rob and his seaplane, the water police tried to tell him the Cessna was a boat and required marine registration as a commercial vessel and certain kit as a result. Last I heard, the result was a draw.

All States regain the legislative power to license intra state operations but not inter state operations.
New South Wales, Queensland and possibly West Australia exercise that power on selected air routes.

Legal stuff
Hi All,
As far as aviation law is concerned, the states can pass whatever law they want so long as it doesn't conflict with any Federal statutes or the Constitution. If there is a conflict, the Federal legislation takes precedence. In this case the existing act and the proposed bill would appear not to conflict with Federal legislation however the truth of that statement would need to be tested in a court.

The restrictions will not apply to emergency services aircraft, media aircraft gathering news footage, commercial airlines or charter operators displaying their normal livery.
