How about scrapping the rule which says "if it can have a CofA, it must have a CofA".
The result:
- Reduced workload for the CAA (so you can get rid of a few expensive public servants)
- Reduced costs for owners
- Increased revenue and membership for LAA, which supports the light aircraft community.
Next, scrap the rule which prevents joint owners from paying an instructor to teach them to fly in their own non-public-transport aeroplane (private cat or permit) :
The result:
- More aircraft ownership
- Cheaper training costs
- People will be trained in aeroplanes that represent what they'll eventually fly, thus enhancing safety.
- Make being a flying instructor more interesting.
Next, scrap the rule which says that msot microlight hours don't count towards a PPL(SEP) CPL or ATPL.
The result:
- Cheaper flying for hour builders, so we may start to get instructors who actually want to be instructors.
- Boosting the UK microlight industry (the light aircraft industry having already been killed off years ago)
- More ability for already able pilots to fly other aeroplane types.
I'm working up steam for a few more later.
