Headsethair,

I'm still not clear exactly what you have gained permission to do. Can you fly within the Specified Area as long as you can land clear and, if so, how do you demonstrate that capability when the boys from the Belgrano would certainly disallow most open spaces (in central London) as they permit public access.

I have no axe to grind as I use both twin and singles in my own role. I am a bit mifffed, though, that it has taken a "personality" to sufficiently pressure our regulators to interpret the ANO correctly instead of making law which they seem to think is their proper role. I've been at odds with them for most of my professional flying career with absolutely no success whatever.

Incidentally, my current campaign with them is over age discrimination. Anyone out there in their late 50's NOT want to stop single pilot PT at 60 please contact me
