Also saying that "“The criticism is inevitable. These people are responding to news reports and they don’t know what actually happened — I did not run out of fuel.....I had just enough fuel to get to Kinloss but what happened was that I burned my margin [which means he did run out of fuel, surely?]........he believed the engine cut-out was caused by a problem with that particular type of aircraft when one of the tanks is empty, and that the incident would lead to all models being grounded for further investigation to prevent a repeat."

Anyone with experience of this model care to comment? Has the BMAA issued a statement/advisory?
