Nigel, You state:-
Although I wouldn't ever want to encourage anyone to fly a Robbo and generally think Robbo pilots sometimes seem to lack skill ( and obviously cash ..!)....
Is this how you view a Robbo pilot? A tad unfair dont you think? It takes a fair bit of skill to learn to fly one as it certainly doesnt have the stability of a H300 or B206 etc. So I definitely disagree about lack of skill. As for cash? Not everyone is born with a silver spoon up their ass, or the wherewithall to make loadsamoney in business.
But I do agree that certain robbo pilots shouldnt be in the air. Usually the ones with too much money and not enough sense. Ive actually refused to fly with some ex students and given up instructing them in the past because I knew, given a licence, theyd probably kill themselves and I didnt want to be a part of that.
