I've got an MA2 dark green, no badges, it's comfortable, warm & I wear it to fly or walk the dog & sod what people think. As for the demise of GA, agree with UA, it isn't what most of the public think but how do you educate people who couldn't give a **** anyway, as long as the football is on the telly 24/7 that's all that matters for most. If you want to impress the boss, buy the bats & a Pringles Jersey, no brain power required "triangle of velocities" what the hell is that about?
In this UK an aeroplane is a thing that takes you to the Costa Spain to get pissed for a fortnight.
