Surprised nobody's responded. Looking at the GA Occurrence Reports, there are a lot of airspace infringements recorded. These could be treated in the same way as road speeding offences. The cash collected will go into the Government fund.
"Dear Stakeholder, as the registered owner of G-#&$£, which was detected infringing xxx airspace at 10.01Z on 1/1/2017, you have been charged the civil penalty of £400. This will be doubled if not payed within 10 days.
You may opt for a court trial, in which case the maximum penalty will be £xxxx, and possible loss of your licence, if found guilty."
Below are some of the many offences buried in the linked documents, with the list position number:
187 Failing to maintain radio equipment in aserviceable condition in a UK-registered aircraft.
161 Failing to affix an Occupant Warning placard Aircraft flying in accordance with a national permit to fly
202 Failing to inform the CAA in writing ofinjury, illness or pregnancy
299 Not attaching the glider to the towing aircraft by means of a tow rope before the towing aircraft takes-off.
458 Permitting an aircraft to take-off or land at an unlicensed aerodrome without being satisfied on reasonable grounds that the aerodrome has adequate facilities for the safe conduct of the flight. Operator of unlicensed aerodrome.
