Why are people so surprised and alarmed, that a post-Brexit UK government wants to take back control of the country's own laws as they relate to aviation?

Continuing as a non-EU EASA member is vassalage pure and simple. All the non-EU EASA members have far smaller populations - and aviation sectors - than the UK's.

And as for "it will take the CAA 10 years to become capable" - this is just project fear all over again. How long did it take EASA to set up? And that was really from scratch, in a city without a major aviation industry.

Post-EASA Britain will do just fine.
