Can you imagine if this "Skywatch" got off the ground (so to speak). Dozens of puddle jumpers squirming around the countryside not having the faintest idea about search patterns/comms etc. Either wasting ATC time with irrelevant


The trouble is that Sky Watch has got off the ground and there are now upward of 150 of them.

So it is really a case of close your eyes to them or watch and perhaps direct them a little .....

IMHO closed eyes aint no good ....

... but that is a little off the original question. On that I can add nothing new. The CAA has leant backwards so insurance calls the tune.
