“Rod vs Bosey squabble about IFR/night”

Unlikely, he has seen the light.

My reason for building the MCR was that costs of “traditional non vintage” GA were likely to skyrocket and I thought the MCR was more capable and more fun for my sort of fun flying compared with my old AA5B. I have to say I would not go back! Several recent trips two up with bags have seen me doing a steady 138kn at 15lph average (for the whole flight). I fly out of a farm strip with my “own” hangar, no hassle and a £250 a year maintenance budget, life is good! I would also have lost big money if I had kept the AA5 for another 2 years.

I am planning a few days touring some of the islands around Mull. If anyone is interested in tagging along drop me a PM.
