CRABBY - If you are still working for HM, why do you find the CAA frustrating as surely you do not have to deal with them?
Also, apart from the Rules of The Air, which I hope you find acceptable as they are ICAO and I presume you have to follow as a Military Pilot, what rules are giving you so much grief???
Or is it that I have sorely misjudged you and that you are only sticking up for the rest of us that are subjected to the CAA and Civil Air Legislation just because you are a thoroughly nice man!!!
Finally I apologise. Of course you are entitled to your opinion and I am sorry if any of my previous posts gave you the impression that this was not the case!!
There, a wee leeetel olivey type branch offered mostly as I respect the incredible work that you and your collegues do in SAR and I guess above all the risks you take to help people entitle you to the odd rant and opinion. Said from the heart!!!
Keep up the good work
