Hi folks.
My father inlaw holds. PPL and is a bush pilot, owns a 180 tail dragger and Owns property in north west victoria.
He wants to put a bush strip in. Plenty of room, council was all set approve it as it out the middle of nowhere but at the final meeting his neighbor who is half mile away turned up with documents saying the strip had to have 900 meters clearance at the end?? He obvisoulsy got these from the CAAPs and im sure the idiot doest realise its advisory only. My inlaw even went to the guy six months ago and told him and asked if he had any concerns. The guy was happy and said yeah it will be great. The F@$ker had the balls to say to him after the meeting that in was not personal and that he knows that he does not need a permit anyway. Inlaw was furious and said why the fuc are you even here then? It spooked a few of the old council members into wanting more info and delaying the application which was submitted in good will to ensure everyone would be happy.
I'm away touring at the moment and he has to reply in writing.
Im a rotary pilot so Is there anyone with experience in this type of applications that could help me out. All I require is a few links to settle the issue. The Internet when I'm touring is poor and download takes forever...
Any help would be appreciated.
