We're probably abusing the list now, as this is rather non-Europa, but at
least there is some aviation-related stuff.
You're correct on the current Government. But I think it's wrong to tar all
politicians with that brush. Some I know are decent, hard-working, committed
people. I see no reason to expect the next Government to continue the
descent into self-serving that this current one began.
As for restricting our aviation freedoms - the PFA are working hard on that,
and I personally founded the Campaigning Aviators Network. I note that you
haven't volunteered to join it, though. Perhaps you'd like to do so and join
me and the other volunteers in spending some of our free time campaigning
for these freedoms?
Well I am probably being a bit hard on ALL politicians but having been an
elected Councillor at Town and District Level for many years I left in disgust
at the waste and profligacy.
As for campaigning, I am more than willing to join you but am already
putting my oar in via a couple of flying clubs and the Fleet Air Arm Squadron.
