It has to be said that some of the new Microlights are really not in the spirit of the traditional view of a microlight. They climb faster, cruise faster and have a greater endurance than a C152. Either the C152 is reclassified or the new breed of microlights are!

Also, a check every two years is not really that unreasonable for NPPLers. Also, as GAPAN says, it is completely absurd to have these concerns about the safety of NPPL holders without considering that of those high performance microlight pilots.

I have to say, I somewhat, but not wholeheartedly, agree. However, I may not be equipped with all the facts.
