Are they asking you to wear a day-glo blouse.....?
Seriously though, I can see where this has come from, in this most litigious age. I can only hope that things calm down a bit over the next few months and this issue simply fades away.
Andy, I see you fly with BAFC where I learnt a few summes back. I've now bought G-AYIG which is northside; I'm trying to find some flying buddies in that part of the world, so let me know if you want to meet for a beer some time.
