De Havilland Tiger Moth 47” Wing Span Plan
de Havilland Tiger Moth 47” Wing Span Plan The de Havilland DH 82 Tiger Moth is a 1930s biplane designed by Geoffrey de Havilland and was operated by the Royal Air Force (RAF) and others as a primary trainer. The Tiger Moth remained in service with the RAF until replaced by the de Havilland Chipmunk in 1952, when many of the surplus aircraft entered civil operation. Many other nations used the Tiger Moth in both military and civil applications, and it remains in widespread use as a recreational aircraft in many countries. It is still occasionally used as a primary training aircraft, particularly for those pilots wanting to gain experience before moving on to other tailwheel aircraft, although most Tiger Moths have a skid. Many are now employed by various companies offering trial lesson experiences. Those in private hands generally fly far fewer hours and tend to be kept in concours condition. The de Havilland Moth club founded 1975 is now a highly organized owners' association offering technical support and focus for Moth enthusiasts. de Havilland Tiger Moth 47” Wing Span Plan de Havilland Tiger Moth 47” Wing Span Plan Design and development The Tiger Moth trainer prototype was derived from the DH 60 de Havilland Gipsy Moth in response to Air Ministry specification 13/31 for an ab-initio training aircraft. The main change to the DH Moth series was necessitated by a desire to improve access to the front cockpit since the training requirement specified that the front seat occupant had to be able to escape easily, especially when wearing a parachute.[2] Access to the front cockpit of the Moth predecessors was restricted by the proximity of the aircraft's fuel tank directly above the front cockpit and the rear cabane struts for the upper wing. -

It was compiled by the de Havilland Heritage Committee, headed by the late John Martin. It has been updated and the scope has been extended to include photographs, where possible, and to cover memorials such as awards and oral histories, also place names and sources of information. Locations Where practical, a post code is given. Where that may not be precise enough, or where there is no code (e.g. at Seven Barrows), the Ordnance Survey map reference and lat/long co-ordinates are given, also a mapcode. All satnav devices can accept lat/long as well as post codes. TomTom devices recognise mapcodes as well as postcodes. [Mapcodes can be used and generated at www.mapcode.com. In ‘I have a mapcode’ use GBR, e.g. GBR J9L.RPQ (Note space after GBR and dot between character groups.

RICHMOND PARISH PROFILE WHO ARE WE? We are a committed group of Christians who endeavour to make our church a welcoming church to all. Many visitors have favourably commented on the friendly welcome they receive among us. We are in an evangelical diocese and most of our congregation tend in that direction. There are, however, a number of parishioners with a more liberal theology. Our focus tends towards what unites us rather than what we disagree on. We are a predominantly older congregation with a small number of children and very few members in the 20-40 age group bracket. We value our evangelical, Anglican heritage which does provide a unique flavour to the Richmond church scene. Our two Sunday morning services attract just over 80 people to our wooden church on the hill near the centre of the Richmond township. WHERE ARE WE? Although Richmond is geographically close to Nelson, it is administered by the Tasman District Council (www.tasman.govt.nz) which has its main council offices in Richmond. Richmond is a thriving, growing centre for the rural townships to the south and the west. The population was estimated to be 17,250 in June 2020. In the 2018 census the main ethnic breakdown of the Tasman Region was European (92.6%), Maori (8.7%), Asian (2.8%) and Pacific (1.6%). (These figures exceed 100% as people can associate with more than one ethnic group). Due both to an increasing influx of retirees and the ageing population Tasman District’s older residents (65+) are predicted to rise from 21% in 2018 to 32% in 20 years. -

Civil Aviation Rule Part 125 Update Agency Disclosure Statement
Regulatory Impact Statement Civil Aviation Rule Part 125 Update Agency Disclosure Statement This Regulatory Impact Statement (RIS) has been prepared by the Ministry of Transport (the Ministry), with assistance from the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). It provides an analysis of options to address the safety risk associated with commercial passenger operations in medium sized aeroplanes (10-29 passenger seats), which are currently subject to less stringent operating requirements than larger aeroplanes (30 or more passenger seats), and to achieve compliance with International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) standards and recommended practices. The preferred option is to raise the operating standards for medium sized aeroplanes by amending Civil Aviation Rule Part 125, which governs commercial air transport in medium sized aeroplanes. It is reasonable to assume that higher operating standards will improve the level of safety afforded to passengers on medium sized aeroplanes. However, due to the minor and technical nature of the amendments, and a lack of relevent safety data for medium and large sized aeroplanes, the underlying risks and expected safety benefits are difficult to quantify. The proposed Rule amendment would impose compliance costs on operators of medium aeroplanes. Operators wishing to conduct extended over water operations1 will be required to train staff in aircraft ditching procedures, estimated at an initial cost of $7,500 per two person flight crew, with annual refresher training estimated at approximately $600 per crew member. Other compliance costs will arise where operators are required (if necessary) to amend their expositions2 ($400-$800 per operator), or amend their operations specifications (approximately $1,000 for each of the two operators affected). -
