THE ONLY ANSWER ,CHAPS(ESSES) IS TO GET HOLD OF YOUR MEP AND give him an earful; and if I knew how to I would. Who is the MEP for Transport? Is it that twit Kinnock? We(Pprune ) got them (Govnmt) to allow a VC to come here,now it`s time to kick the Euro pean b%$$£$s into submission.`They` ,of course, don`t have long memories/history/want to forget there ever was a WW2, be huggy-huggy and forget the part that Daks/DC-4 played in setting Europe free...just so they could instigate stupid regulations, based on false suppositions, about aircraft that fly primarily VFR,FOR PLEASURE, HISTORY, and should in no way be classified alongside your modern pay -as-you-go, cram -them in ,bucket-and -spade brigade.......I`ll calm down now-has there been any consultation over this? how long for ? usually a few days ? just so no-one can organise a defence....or should I mention the War.. France,Belgium, Netherlands, Denmark...How long before they gave in...history repeats !! Anyone care to take up the Cudgels...even to kick them where it hurts ?
