There was an interesting full page colour advert by Boeing no less in yesterday's Sunday Times saying how they are working on UAV's to improve all our lives etc etc.
So maybe Boeing should fit and service Mode S in all our flying machines free of charge?

Surely not. We all know how cash-strapped Boeing are, and our dear government feels that we should help them out

Seems to demonstrate conclusively the CAA's lack of good faith in the Mode S consultation - they had already decided the conclusion and contracts signed halfway through the consultation process - nice one

In the last issue of "Sailplane and Gliding" the BGA reports that the total number of responses to the CAA's Mode S "consultation" has been several times larger than number of responses to any previous CAA consultations
- so well done guys.
The BGA has also requested copies of any replies from members of parliament to those peeps who bothered to write to their MP about the consultation process.
Said copy of S&G also has a very interesting review of FLARM as a low-cost collision avoidance device for gliders/light aircraft.
