Trivia. In a C172, you lose alternator and battery power, the engine is still running fine and apart from having no elecrtical power, the electrical circuitry is intact; out of EGT, T&P's, Fuel Flow, and Fuel Quantity gauges, which, if any, would you expect to lose?

Proposed Part 61 by CASA inlcudes the all mighty ATPL flight test along with many other changes (A few for the better for some, such as limited PPL fliying permitted without a CASA medical, providing you meet the drivers licence medical standards........Jeez CASA that's lenient for you guys!!!!) But just read they are also bringing in a new low-level rating, well as there are already ratings required to fly below 500 (Such as special agricultural and low-level aerobatic ratings), I'm guessing this probably means us scenic VFR seekers will require a rating to fly around the coast at 500, or over that scenic mountain range at 500 AGL. I hope I'm wrong! Maybe it means we can go out and get a rating to fly below 500, without being an agricultural or experienced aerobatics pilot :D But I doubt it!
