I've a strong personal feeling this law is contrary to common sense.

One can listen to live feeds from all over the world, but not the UK.

I would really like to see one of the safety organisations make moves to allow licensed pilots at least to listen in via scanners or via the net legally.

Taking breaks from flying the one thing that takes by far the biggest hit is my R/T. Absorbing CAP 413 doesn't help much in the real world. It would be so much better if we could simply listen in to local procedures etc.
