Re: Ignoring PPR

Welcome to come and look at mine (not for sale) - just keep your dog on a lead. PPR obviously It's a trap!!!!! :D Your offer is much appreciated, they're a good looking machine and for one-up wafting around seem ideal. As I refine my shortlist I realise I'm going to need something with a bit of roo...

List of Permit types?

It must be here but I'm buggered if I can find it. I expected it to be linked somewhere like the 'What is a Permit aircraft?' notes but maybe that's a bit obvious. Can't find it in the engineering section either.

Someone please put me out of my misery.

Re: Ignoring PPR

Now, now. I don't even have a dog.

Trail cameras are what you need, catch 'em in the act.

You're welcome.

Re: Ignoring PPR

My strip has ropes across the runway when not in use to keep trespassers off. Hence PPR is a good idea if anyone wants to visit I first heard of someone doing this a couple of decades ago when I lived in Australia. I was speaking to a flying school/strip owner about an instructing job when they lis...

Re: Ignoring PPR

Ours is on an active farm with radio modellers using the runway several days a week plus a HUGE clay shooting ground alongside and of course the obligatory prickly neighbours so a briefing is essential. I've plans for a camera but they have their drawbacks. For one they don't react quickly enough to...

Re: Ignoring PPR

I'm the first point of contact at our strip and regularly find aircraft there who have not called. We now have a note on the movements book asking people who land without PPR to get it before leaving, they don't bother either.

Yup, email received here too.

It's not even my radio and money though so I don't know why I'm getting excited. :D

Re: Claim re contribution towards the cost of 8.33 kHz radio

That's the third I think. I submitted one for a FWI* and he's been asking for his money.
