A sad and sorry saga. I ran a Terrier for a couple of years on a C of A - with an 'understanding' engineer. Something that is becoming nearly impossible.
Since the old guard at the Auster Club rejected the permit route I thank my lucky stars that I no longer have the Terrier. My permit aircraft whilst having some aggravations is so easy in comparison.
Hopefully (and meaning no slight to Mr Cooper) they will end up on permits - I'd still like one.......
(but with a modern engine and some easy mods - like brakes....)
I'm sure its pure coincidence that the Auster CLub bulletin board was suspended during this miserable period.
