When was your last ramp check LS, or better still, when did you last fly a GA aircraft as PIC?

Squawk,
If you mean, at which I was present (as a witness), quite recently, but I have absolutely no intention of identifying where and when, the aircraft owner/pilot would be very tee'd off if I did that, just to satisfy a critic.
As for the latter, none of your business (even in which country - I am licensed in more than one) and not relevant to the issue at hand. ------ as you seek to challenge my criticism of CASA, rather than address the issues.
Tootle pip!!

PS: I spend quite a lot of time on Bankstown aerodrome ---- no sign of GA life there, the movement rate is pathetic compared to years ago.

Oh!, Dear me, wouldn't it be wonderful if that was truly the case, there would be far fewer AAT cases CASA v XXXX.
And reverse onus of proof is far too prominent --- at least it is mostly spelt out.

It is never straight forward for you to give an answer. I’m tipping you haven’t flown for a very long time and all of these horrid ramp check stories are either not from you, or happened many years ago in the “good old days.” None of us care when or where your friend was ramp checked either, or the secret mission you weren’t on, it was just a simple question really, to prove a point, which it looks like it did.

Swuawk,
Suit yourself, you will, anyway! I have absolutely no intention of making my or my friends detailed activities public.
You are entitled to your opinion, and you are entitled to be wrong.

Again... we don’t care for the detailed information as to you and your mates activities. I just wanted to hear if you were actually actively flying and had been experiencing these “aggressive” ramp checks that you speak of, or were they a product of a by-gone era.

Certainly not relevant to this discussion on the poor souls that lost their lives near Coffs.
