There is on the fiddle, and there is on the fiddle.....yipes, the year is nearly up, and I have to have ten hours to keep my rating! in this case, a person who wanted to maintain a gliding instructor rating.
I am still pxxx......very very very annoyed about it. In December, no chance of a soaring flight, so he asked the tuggie to tow him to 8,000' in a K8 glider, four times in one day. On the second flight they cooked two cylinders in the towplane
IT WAS MY AEROPLANE! I have never forgotten and I will never forgive until I receive a cheque in the post to cover the cost.....and that will never happen.
Of course each said it was the other one's fault..... and no, they didn't ask my permission, either, I wasn't at the airfield on that occasion.
