We have "on condition" maintenance of our airplanes/helicopters so why can't we have "on condition" maintenance of the 'sloppy link' interface between the cyclic & the collective?
This challenge to the 'dead hand' of the bureaucratic Campaign against Aviation is long overdue in my view.
Parliament made a great mistake in giving these people a free hand to oversee the UK aviation industry, without maintaining some form of public i.e.taxpayer control.
Commercial pilots(& wannabe)pilots have been 'milked' by this unaccountable Quango for far too long, Capt.Evans is to be applauded in his efforts to destabilize these people.
The CAA's remit as I understand it is to a) Oversee the industry & b) Promote the industry. I see very little effort going into to promoting the industry & those who make their living from it!
with fraternal greetings,
ambi
