Dear Justin
What a nonsense that the CASA inspector(s) foisted on you. If you read
the TCDS for the Standard Jantar 2 and the TCDS for the Standard Jantar
3 then it is clear at point 8 "Operational Capability" that these
sailplanes are rated for "VFR Day", and below that "Cloud flying" which
is why a T&S (as a minimal capability piece of equipment for blind
flying) has to be included in the standard equipment list. Since we are
not permitted here to cloud fly and have such a placard in the cockpit,
a T&S is not relevant to being mandatory standard equipment. Now we
have more paper to cater for the bleeding obvious.
