Covering note here.

Just to clarify my position on medicals. In my view, what is required is that states accept each other's medicals, or lack thereof.

The UK already accepts French microlight licences with no...

You're welcome Bob. Playing around with the Pilot 3 last night brought back many pleasant memories of flights made years ago. Must find my old Trimble now and see what waypoints I have in there.

Hi Bob,
I have just fired up my Pilot 3, which has been hiding in a cupboard for years. You can change from degrees, minutes and seconds to degrees and decimals by going to Main Menu > Setup >...

Report on G-GARB...

I agree. There was a time when I would happily drive from East Sussex to Telford or Birmingham for the show, but not any more. Nothing to do with age, traffic or cost, just a lack of anything...

Hi Joan,
I don't know. They only write to me about arrears. :-)

I must claim my dividends from the LAA. :) http://http://lightaircraftassociation.co.uk/AboutUs/Beneficial%20shareholders.pdf

Dave,
You are using a privilege to bash the biennal flight. The only reason we can do the flight in a flex or three-axis, is because the microlight rating covers both control systems (unlike car and...

Dave,

Because you and many other BMAA members think it is ridiculous does not mean it is ridiculous. The biennial flight review is not unique to the CAA and is required by EASA, the FAA, CASA and...

I have already commented, so advise I am not an instructor, fly 70 hours a year and need biennial flights with an instructor to revalidate my NPPL, LAPL and FAA PPL.

That University of Life must be really good. Graduates seem to know it all and need no further instruction. :)

Hi Paul,
Your challenge to anyone to provide any evidence (evidence, not hearsay or anecdote) that substantiates the worth of the bi annual (biennial) instructor check flight is difficult to accept,...

That is a misleading statement. The 'virtually free volunteer pilots' are not authorised to conduct the biennial instruction flight by the LAA, they are authorised to do so by the CAA. They are all...

This battle was hard fought long ago by many good men. I , for one, don't want the BMAA to spend time and effort on a useless campaign for change.

Hi Joan,

The FAA Flight Review is not a test, even though the instructor can refuse to sign off on it if he/she considers the pilot to require further training. The EASA 'refresher training of at...

Don't go spreading the word about my wisdom, in case someone expects me to show some on here. :)

Yes, it's nice to be back, but could we please have dates displayed as is customary in the UK, rather than in the US. I don't need help from this forum to be confused about dates and whereabouts. :)

The short answer is no, because US ultralights are classified as vehicles, not aircraft.

Those cracking Eurostars turned out to be a bit flaky. :smile:

Here is another non-working link:-) Le gouvernement a pris la décision de fermer de manière imminente 13 points de passages frontalier (PPF) répartis sur tout le territoire.

Too little, too late,...

Yes. Next best is Calais. Now OCAS, AFIS WED to SAT. FR only outside AFIS hours. 2HR PNR Customs. No mogas.
Pierre 'la pompe' will miss us. He had a soft spot for les anglais.

Abbeville is no longer a Customs airfield.
