AIRBORNE AVIONICS

Airborne Avionics has moved into the Oz Choppers Hangar at Mudgee. The existing team at Narromine (Arnie & Darren) have settled into a routine of sorts. Darren is full-time living in Mudgee and is really enjoying it. Arnie travels over from Narromine each week and generally spends 3 days with us.
So it’s all systems go and business is as usual, just at a new location.

FLYING IN THE WIRE & OBSTRUCTION

In August of this year we will host a Flying in the Wire and Obstruction training course (to be presented by Robert A. Feerst, President of Utilities/Aviation Specialists Inc) at the new hangar complex in Mudgee

This training is vital for any aviation based organisations carrying out work at low levels or individuals who spend time in the air as a crew person.

A brief overview of the topics Robert will cover during the course is as follows:

• How risk enters into low-level flight operations.
• The “Basic Awareness’s” flight crews must have and maintain while operating in the wire and obstruction environment.
• Understanding your exposure to the wire and obstruction environment.
• Crew Resource Management (What the pilot and crewmembers need to do to act together as a crew in the wire and obstruction environment)
• The responsibilities of each crew member.
• Understanding the dynamics of the wire environments.
• Visibility Engineering
• Additional dangers during low-level operations.
