Where the Problem Lies
Before I start I want to say I am not a pilot of any description...Surely the message of the report here is very clear. The problem with 121.5 is NOT training for GA pilot it IS misuse by commercial pilots (whether by accident or not is immaterial). I assume these results are good for the UK only. However I would suggest that once the commercial guys have got their misuse sorted they can start having a go at the 1% misuse (or genuinely useful) use that is GA practise calling . Ask yourselves gentlemen and ladies is it the 3 minutes of day of GA practise that causes you to turn the frequency down or the finger trouble of your colleagues?
