Sounds like another infexible, costly and unecessary decision which affects the safety of pilots and their passengers as well as preventing the training of pilots on how to recover from flying IMC when it's vitally important. Unfortunately, the crew of a PA28 lost their lives approaching Blackpool Airport last year when encountering IMC conditions. Surely this will make the licencing expensive and out of reach of many GA pilots and ultimately lead to further incidents.
