My point is that the industry screamed for this a few years back. Granted CASA's muddling ways didn't help. But now, because a few idiots have been too idle to get off thier fat bums and go get a manual, BM starts screaming and making it all the more complex. (I have done 4 different ones so far, it aint that hard!!! Even for a one of type aircraft
)
So, who is going to update the old Manuals. You gonna keep CASA in the loop????
What happens if you have an accident and your chipmunk manual is different from the pommy chipmunk manual in an area related to the prang cos it is a TAFM and you didn't know how to update it???
So there we go back to the same insurance problem BM claims to have fixed.
In my opinion, BM is a well intentioned (but some what nasty) pommy meddler who is a little out of his depth. I know I am not alone in wishing he'd just go fly that silly looking Navajo into the sunset and retire from whatever it is he does.
