Re: Ramp Check= Aviation killer
I Have worked with CAA for 30+ years. Insitutions exsists and survive because of gray area's. It is a job creator of note. I have an audit at least once a month. Every new arrival has a different angle on what is required and openly states what the previous guy wants is not required. We just do what...

Re: flight test for RAASA
I have to agree with Slider. I did my test in Saldanha and really enjoyed it. I have done PPL tests before and this was on power. Amassing how correct you can fly if you have too.

Re: Part 24, Doing your own maintenance
I think if the owner knows what he is doing, the more he does on his aircraft the better. As long as there are definite guide lines what will qualify as line maintenance.

All you guys complaining about the cost must be able to afford you toys working for fr...
