I was sure aircraft came and went during our race meetings in the past, but not having raced for a while, I assumed that was still the case.
Johnm, I'm with you, we seem to have a nanny state that stops us from doing anything we may enjoy. Just recently at a hotel we have frequented for years, where we hired boats for a paddle on the lake, the hotel would only hire the boats to us if we had life jackets. But they would not hire the jackets to us only sell them at £45 each. So we suggested quad biking instead, no that has been stopped due to the high insurance cost. As I said soon we will not be allowed to fly due to the risk to ourselves.
