I happened to look up the Shobdon incident. As well as being fined and paying the CAA costs, the pilot in question had to pay a 'victim' surcharge... What?!!

hoodie - yes I know what it is, thank you. Barmy application of 'rules is rules'.... There doesn't appear to have been any 'victims' - and (God forbid) if there had been, 60 quid wouldn't really have helped.

But as the Sentencing Council links says, it's not intended for the victim of that particular crime - it's for a pool to supposedly help all crime victims. There was no leeway NOT to charge it in this or any other case.

But then, as the second link indicates, it's a daft macho political posturing thing anyway.

It's just a bit blithe is this context when you read the CAA report.

Anyway, apologies for thread creep.
