Part 135
 

Anyone have any idea on how long before Part 135 comes into being.

Interesting to note vfr charter states one proficiency check per year and IFR States two checks per year.

sillograph,

In its present form, hopefully never.

It is not withing a bull's roar of meeting the "Australian Government Guide to Regulation", which the Governments says is mandatory for all Government departments and regulatory bodies, including CASA.

It will be every bit as destructive of GA as Part 61 is proving to be, and unless substantial changes are made, Part 135 will eliminate a large proportion of "traditional" charter. The minimum aerodrome standards, alone, are extremely limiting.

If the Minister is fair dinkum about implementing the ASRR (Forsyth) Report and the Red Tape Reduction program, there must be major changes to virtually all current "new" rules, which are all overkill.

Australian aviation does not deserve what is happening to it, and the CASA input is, in my opinion, the most destructive.

Tootle pip!!

Mr Skidmore’s predecessor’s predecessor, Mr Byron, gave this answer in February 2005:That statement was made over ten years ago.

Mr Skidmore’s predecessor, Mr McCormick, gave this answer in the "Aviation Safety Yearbook 2013":By my calculations, the next year after 2013 was 2014, and 2014 has ended.

I used to care what these people said.

Trust me: Ignore them.
