TC you said ... pleasure flying the same routines and inevitably on sunny days too.
I guess you dont live in Yorkshire then
or Scotland
I think you will find there are a lot of ppl,s who fly in the same bad weather as the rest of you . And just like the rest of you they learn to judge how bad it needs to be before the bin it . This comes with experience ...nothing else . I dont believe you can learn that from a caa book .
Anyway good to hear an apology from you for your blanket accusation !!
I do accept that the presence of a CP is something ppl,s usually dont have access to and i was very lucky to have Dick Meston as my CP and i still used to call him for advice years after he stopped working with me . ( yes he was Mil !!)
