A magentic compass is required to be fitted.....this uses a flux detector to align itself..............If you use an electronic compass, it must then have a flux detec...

Re: Buffelsfontein
Hi. Just to let everyone know that I have both reports....thanks. Please everyone, should you have a mis-hap, no matter how trivial it is, let CAA know.......dont let us find out from a third party as by the time it gets to the powers of what, the whole incident has been bent out of proportion. I th...

Re: Buffelsfontein
Lying upside down is hardly called bushwacking.........I would say that that is an accident, that requires an accident report form to be sent to CAA.
Still waiting for the report please.

After an informal discussion on the topic, it was decided that I approach the relevant people to apply for an exemption for WEIGHT - SHIFT microlights to be exempt from carrying a compass.

Re: CAA Inspector responsible for R1 million in damages and cost
Someone told him it was full of trikes.......
you cannot just enter an aircraft if there is not a resonsible person around.
If it happened to me, I would refuse to board the aircraft in case they had planted drugs, put a bomb on board or any other thing I cud think up.
