Hmmm, as a low houred nearly PPL kind of doode, all I can say is blimey, there’s a lot of slagging off of differing flying types, still just human nature I suppose!!
I agree that the world of GA needs fewer and not more rules and regs, but c’mon guys, you can’t seriously suggest that doing this sort of stuff in the circuit at a GA airfield is a good thing? I think the accident at North Weald demonstrates that it’s not and surely if an accident is caused by this sort of flying, doesn’t that just give the press more material to beat up GA with?
And, at the risk of upsetting all you military wallahs, isn’t doing this just a tinsy bit ego stroking?
Still, I have to admit that the guy who flew the MK19 into Bristol one day, when Filton was shut, looked pretty darn cool doing it ! !
