Great result and a wonderful illustration of the way the power of the internet has enabled a widely dispersed group with similar interests to share information and experiences.
At one time this sort of unilateral action by SB would have gone un-noticed in the wider aviation community - not any more. All sorts of useful information and personal results of encounters posted, as well as links to the various Acts, AIP etc.
I intend to test the matter of informing the police under Schedule 7.12.3b which states that a pilot shall not fly from a non-designated port to the IOM, CIs, Eire or NI unless......he gives at least 12 hours notice in writing to a constable for the police area in which the port is situated .....by handing written notice to the local plod not SB, next time a have a flight that qualifies. I'll post the result of that encounter here!
Good work by all.
