Piston ban on Gabo Island

[zac21]

(they have just mandated that Merimbula need to buy a Pac750....)

Have you ever seen the glide ratio of Pac750????,,,,,,not for me thanks

[megle2]

From the first post and the media report, its about performance, nothing to do with the over water segment

Harts would of responded to the Clients guidelines
Had plenty of experience dealing with Harts and always found them excellent

With a feathered prop, yes. I'll take the PAC over anything else you'll nominate (except a glider of course, and the C208 )

Corrupt system...

...Harts would of responded to the Clients guidelines...

Yep. Thats how it works. If Harts ever wanted to do govermint work in that state again it writes the 'required' report.

Binghi, who are you calling corrupt, the State, Harts or both

edit - spelling as usual

megle2, a system is not an entity..


megle2, as you are championing Harts and commenting on how the report came about, i.e. "responding to the clients guidelines", a question for ya:
Why would the Harts report recommend no piston engine aircraft to use the subject airfield ?

Thought the c337 would have been the pick of aircraft to operate into Gabo Island.

[megle2]

Binghi, I'm not championing anyone
As for the report, no idea

Problem is this is not a good example because Lipmann has crashed more aircraft up that way than all operators combined.

Pilot 58.

Whatever your smoking, can I have some, it must be real good sh1t!!

The figures (verified statistics) presented to the Regional Aviation Association Conference and NSW (you do know the difference between NSW and QLD, do you?) Tourism Task Force were for the whole of Australia over many years, and certainly nothing to do with one operator.

Next time, read the post before you hit the keyboard.

Tootle pip!!

Hmm... will this set a precedent for the rest of the state owned strips ?

And all thanks to Harts ...or the guidelines..
