OCCURRENCE SUBMITTED TO DETAILS RAAUS: The instructor was undertaking a dual-flying training flight along with a student on board. After landing, the aircraft was cleared by ATC to taxi via B3 and M to the holding bay. However, the student pilot began taxiing via TWY ‘J’ as that was usual procedure at the aerodrome. The PIC only noticed the deviation following ATC’s call to the aircraft and acknowledged the error with the controller. |

OCCURRENCE SUBMITTED TO DETAILS RAAUS: RAAus registered Jabiru aircraft, during a flight from William Creek to Port Pirie, made an emergency landing in a paddock approx. 1NM north of Port Pirie Aerodrome. The PIC has reported that they began descending from 3500 ft approx. 10NM north of Port Pirie, and experienced first engine backfire at 2000 ft that resulted in reduced power. Subsequently, three more backfires were experienced and the engine stopped at 900 ft, due to which the PIC conducted an emergency landing in a paddock. The aircraft was landed without any further damage, and no occupants were injured due to the incident. |

OCCURRENCE SUBMITTED TO DETAILS RAAUS: After take-off from RWY 35, the PIC observed CHT to be reading high while the aircraft climbed to approx. 200 ft. The PIC believed the reason to be possible coolant leak and performed a precautionary landing on RWY 35 and shut down the aircraft engine clear of RWY. |

OCCURRENCE SUBMITTED TO DETAILS RAAUS: RAAus registered Auster aircraft was involved in an incident during landing at home strip at Lanyon near Tharwa in ACT. The PIC was returning from Cootamundra after completing his BFR check. The pilot had reported that the turn for final leg was made early hence extended the base leg and made left hand orbit to turn left onto final. The pilot also added doing side slips on approach to lose some altitude. The aircraft had reportedly crossed fence at 55 kts which the PIC has indicated to be slightly faster. Subsequently, the aircraft had floated and the pilot intended to touch down again by holding the stick back and also applied brakes. This had resulted in the tail lifting up and the propeller hitting grass, and eventually left the aircraft upside down. Emergency services were called and the pilot was taken to hospital. |

OCCURRENCE SUBMITTED TO DETAILS RAAUS: RAAus Sling aircraft and a VH-registered aircraft came in close proximity at VFR waypoint PKR, approx. 8nm south of Archerfield aerodrome. After concluding flying training at Archerfield's southern training area, RAAus sling aircraft began its return to YBAF via Park Ridge. The aircraft climbed up to 2000 ft and began tracking for PKR. When nearly overhead PKR, the PIC heard a call from a VH-registered aircraft that was also approaching PKR. At this time, the crew of the RAAus sling aircraft were yet to call due to frequency congestion but were monitoring. The Sling aircraft crew also heard YBAF Tower passing traffic information to VH-registered aircraft, however, the traffic information passed about RAAus Sling aircraft was incorrect, i.e., RAAus aircraft was actually to the right of the VH-aircraft, whereas the YBAF TWR informed their position as 8 o'clock. Shortly after inbound call by the RAAus aircraft, VH-registered aircraft passed underneath the Sling aircraft with very little vertical separation (WebTrak reads 27ft vertical separation at point of crossing).
The crew of the RAAus aircraft have also reported that the VH-registered aircraft passed from left to right under their aircraft and appeared to track for a non-standard arrival into YBAF. Upon observing this, the PIC of the RAAus aircraft radioed YBAF TWR about the reduced separation between two aircraft. |

OCCURRENCE SUBMITTED TO DETAILS RAAUS: The PIC of the RAAus registered aircraft lined-up for take-off on RWY 31. The right wing of the aircraft appeared to be picked up by wind as power was applied by the PIC. Subsequently, the pilot used full right aileron to counter the force, but the right wing continued to rise until the left wing struck and dragged along the ground. Subsequently, the pilot reduced power, and the aircraft came to a stop with right wing still in the air. The aircraft settled on its wheels after a short while. |
