What a nest of busybodies!
An accident which is pretty uncommon, and yet a whole variety of poster want more restrictions, more legislation, more interference.
What will that achieve? The vast majority of ppls simply do not have the knowledge to understand the regulations - you only have to look at many of the near gormless questions postered here (and the incorrect answers!).
And these people are going to 'police my or your activities? Not bl**dy likely!
Yes this was unfortunate - but almost any club pilot could have done the same thing - would that make it any better? Yes his bits of paper may be in better order - but the outcome of hitting the ground at 173mph has nothing to do with paper and much more to do with kinetic energy.
The vast majority of flying regulations have much more to do with regulating commerical activity than real safety. To all those suggesting that other pilots ensure wwe stay legal - how keen are you on my calling the police if I find you exceeding the speed limit, parking on a yellow line or not having water in your windscreen washers (all are of course illegal)??
Makes the work of the Stasi look very laudable...............
