Please folks, let's not confuse the likes of BM or AOPA with "industry"!!!!!

The TAFM (?) contains very little useful information about how to actually operate the aircraft, unlike the manufacturers POH. The ones I came across were mostly badly typed if not illegible and often had pages missing. When I came here from overseas I was amazed that these little things were legal documents.

Like tealady we got ours before the (original) deadline. It wasn't difficult, it wasn't cheap either, but was definately the better way to go. Things that are easily found in the POH were becoming the stuff of old wives tales. I'd rather follow the manufacturers recommendations than a tatty old file full of scrappy pages.

There seem to be some people who just object to things for the sake of being awkward, that's how they end up contradicting themselves so much.
