I bet it took a while to find Fred & Florence as qualified witnesses.

Also with their names, I am picturing people around retirement age, don’t think they would be talking in metres.

Glad all OK

Bust out laughing!!

The press report….Explosion..crash…defying death…wreckage….nose dive,

..ends with……….. ‘An Introductory flying lesson in a Piper Warrior aircraft can be booked at the Aero Club for just £150.’

Not exactly the best way to encourage people to take up the passtime is it? I guess that was why they did it. Misguided people who see private pilots as rich playboys rather than normal (?) people who are struggling to afford enough hours to remain current.

There are quiet a few Cirrus in the UK with US registrations. I was told the reason last year, something to do with different ratings under the US system IIRC.

Oh dear, fractured and burnt composite structure = toxic waste site.
I do hope the fire crew were wearing breathing apparatus as MMMF coated in burnt epoxy are nasty.
