Have your say on UK GA
Theres something called the Red Tape Challenge going on. Its a government scheme thats looking at ways of cutting red tape and bureaucracy during day to day life. At present the theme is General aviation. Sounds like a good idea. Some of the responses are coming across as moaning and not very constructive so far. By the way I am in no way connected with the challenge.

It's EASA that's creating the red tape........
NPA 2012-17 is supposed, I think, to lighten the load, but I lost the will to live very quickly wading through it, and I don't know whether it has turned into a Decision, Rule or whatever.
I'm hoping that someone closer to GA might know.
Your enjoyment of NPA 2012-17 will, I know, be so enormous that you'll want to get straight back in there with a study of NPA 2012-15, also about changes re GA.
Political gimmicks by the UK Government, eg "Red Tape Challenges" at which Civil Servants laugh while they create more posts and red tape to kill them off, are not going to change EASA, and the CAA will merely shrug its shoulders while mumbling "Nothing to do with us, old chap, it's up to EASA innit, have another cup of tea."
Whether or not these NPAs could and would change things for the better I don't know, but sure as hell if they do the CAA will frustrate any improvement in the usual way.
