Is this pilot constantly in Hawaiian Airlines uniform and wearing his company badge taking his clothes off really your brand image?

Would love to see some points of view about the proposed upcoming changes to #CASR61 #part61 #casa #CASR

[kelly fuller @kelfuller]

Mayors of #Guyra #Uralla, #Inverell #Walcha have met #Armidale Council over plans 2 charge 4 parking @ Airport, they are opposed to the idea

If you want Aussie pilots flying our airlines Govt needs to take carbon tax off avgas because no-one will be able to afford to learn to fly

[Phillip Higgins @phillip_higgins]

I wonder if aviation fuel is also going to be excluded from @JuliaGillard #carbontax #avchatoz @pcdu

[Aviation Chat Oz @AviationChatOz]

@phillip_higgins i wonder if there is there better way CASA can provide exams by actually providing the study material themselves #avchatoz

[Phillip Higgins @phillip_higgins]

will the government support rural Australia and aviation by providing federal funding for community airstrips? #avchatoz #qanda

[Phillip Higgins @phillip_higgins]

Still waiting on ATSB preliminary report into the fatal crash of a respected aviator & colleague due 20th Jan http://t.co/o17mDP5 #avchatoz

Moorabbin mid-air collision report released. Pilots not sighting each other & lack of action taken by airservices blamed http://t.co/gUauTgU

The wind has backed to the west in Melbourne = cloudy and no skydiving for a while #avchatoz

[Aviation Chat Oz @AviationChatOz]

Just a tip use the hash tag with avchatoz and everyone can follow the discussion #avchatoz

[Gregory M. Leong @GregoryMLeong]

@phillip_higgins could be xpensive (time & money) to implement. perhaps apply via casa for student discount with proof of fulltime study

[Phillip Higgins @phillip_higgins]

@Gregggles due you think to qualify for those subsidies, students should pass an aptitude test? it could be academic or cognitive #avchatoz

[Gregory M. Leong @GregoryMLeong]

@AviationChatOz I'd like to see easier methods to obtain youth allowance/Austudy or see subsidies 4 gov mandatory items e.g CAOs #struggle

[Aviation Chat Oz @AviationChatOz]

Are avenues like the ADF & HECS aviation degrees enough to support the very talented less wealthy that want to pursue a career in aviation?

[Aviation Chat Oz @AviationChatOz]

Is the increase in aircraft hire costs making becoming a pilot too prohibitive? #avchatoz

[Aviation Chat Oz @AviationChatOz]
