Writing to your MP
(see http://forum.keypublishing.com/showthread.php?137838-Write-to-your-MP-Template-Letter-and-how-to-do-it-CAA-Airshow-Charges-etc )
is far more effective though,
not to speak of filling in that consultation at
http://publicapps.caa.co.uk/modalapplication.aspx?appid=58 :eagerness:
Yes, some MPs have already answered in a positive and supportive manner when they received a letter (by post or by e-mail) !
http://publicapps.caa.co.uk/docs/33/statutory%20charges%20GA%20V2.pdf
still works!
Have downloaded that PDF-file now, just in case…
Interesting one this – what were they thinking?

Well, this one was indeed too low. It was fatal as well… 🙁
Not very new but still very much enjoyable:

Lower but slower:

Don’t forget to write to your MP!

The document in question can no longer be accessed by the link in the original post. And I can’t find it on their website. Is this significant I wonder?
Was it this one?
http://publicapps.caa.co.uk/docs/33/statutory%20charges%20GA%20V2.pdf :confused:
as found thru
https://www.caa.co.uk/Our-work/Consultations/Open/Statutory-air-display-and-low-flying-permission-charges/
and
http://publicapps.caa.co.uk/modalapplication.aspx?appid=11&mode=detail&id=7212
These links seem to work now. Indeed they did not seem to work earlier.
But I have heeded your “warning” and saved this document on my desktop. :eagerness:
Perhaps others should do the same, you never know if it somehow “disappears”… :rolleyes:
Only about sixty people have used
http://publicapps.caa.co.uk/modalapplication.aspx?appid=58
so far.
Can this total be brought up to at least one hundred by the end of this weekend ?
So they would be signing in protest at something they don’t understand :rolleyes:
I invite you to come up with a more easily readable overview. :rolleyes:
Four thousand plus signatures now.
For those interested, next weekend:
http://www.bada-uk.com/air_event/badamaacaaair-pilots-pre-season-air-display-conference/
The 2016 Pre-Season Air Display Conference will take place between 10th-11th February 2016 at the Defence Academy, Shrivenham
https://twitter.com/BritAirDisplays/status/694958622766399488
An updated Agenda for next week’s Pre-Season Air Display Conference is now available to members….
No prizes for guessing why that agenda got updated… :rolleyes:
It seems to me that an issue not being faced up to here is the inherent risk in the possible degree of damage caused by a heavy/faster ex-military aircraft crashing.
Perhaps not on this forum, but have a look here:
http://www.pprune.org/military-aviation/566533-hawker-hunter-loss-shoreham-airshow-52.html
Yes, several posters over there are ex-military jet jockeys…
Real jockeys that is, so no “imposters”… :rolleyes:

It’s worth reading the actual consultation from CAA and respond to it. Probably more worth while than the petition.
Not everyone on this forum knows/is able to read “Legalese”… :rolleyes:
If you do know your

then please fill in
http://publicapps.caa.co.uk/modalapplication.aspx?appid=58 ,
if you cannot,
then make your opinion known to the CAA otherwise.
By signing
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/120628
for example.
The CAA want to implement these charges after 29 February 2016, so do not delay… :eagerness:

…yes, the clip above with the Beech 1900 in Western Africa is not without numerous “F-words”… You have been more than sufficiently warned now! :dev2:
