Why should the CAA care about GA? How about the fact that the vast majority of a/c they are responsible for fall under the category of a "GA machine."
Airliners make up a very small proprtion of the Bitish "fleet" and anyone who thinks that your average Boeing or AIrbus is "sexy" needs their head examining!
If this is the case (as it seems to be) then that is a very sad state of affairs.
Having the odd airline jockey do some part time Instructing can only be a good thing. I like to think of all of us as part of a community of like-minded individuals. I couldn't care less what someone flies, if they are an enthusiast and do what they say, then they are welcome.
A pity this attitude doesn't seem to extend to our regulators or management, flying is changing from the exciting career it once was to a grind and the more I think about it, the happier I am that I have left the airline world behind me.
