gasax Good luck with the 601. It's a shame about the 801.I appreciate that the PFA is trying to keep our skies as safe as possible. However, when a well respected designer like Big Chris designs an aircraft that is flying successfully in countries all around the world one would think that this would be taken into account by the British authorities.
irish seaplane thanks for the tips. All my flying experience has been landplanes with the last 8 years exclusively on taildraggers of various kinds. Water operations will certainly be a different world.
