This is from 30 November 2019, only five weeks from now.
Although the annual registration cost is a relatively low £9 I think this will result in many inadvertently breaking the law because no doubt thousands of model fliers have no contact with the CAA or even a model club.
My own model aircraft will remain in the loft!
If you have taken any BMFA proficiency test you don't need to do the CAA test...
