Interesting comment.
So if the cost of breaching a regulation is less than the cost of compliance then you would be happy to commit that breach?
What would CASA's lawyer say about that?
Does someone have a list of the regs it is cheaper to breach than comply with (asked with tongue in cheek).
You are correct about aircraft being able to safely land above max landing weight. The only problem is that it isn't legal other than in an emergency. I guess the PICs decision comes to down to their own view on the importance of compliance with the regs.
Happy Flying
