Err I think that this might be over to you Mark to clarify what you meant. Mark said "Frankly, if I'm faced with a choice between an RPL and a carbon-copy GFA-produced equivalent..." I took that to mean that he was proposing that GFA issue some sort of alternate licence. I'm opposed to that as part of the benefit of the RPL to me is that I can cross-dress (you know that I do already ;-) easily. I would certainly like to fly Ultralights but at the moment I'm paying over $1000 per year to all the differing sport aviation bodies and clubs that I belong to and I'm a bit sick of it. If I do 100 hours a year then I'm pay $10/hour just for admin stuff. Having the single theory sylybus for airspace and radio procedures cover each practical rating is great. (I could even use it to fly helicopters but I'm still not sure if they fly or just that they are so ugly the ground repels them). rgds Pete -- * You are subscribed to the aus-soaring mailing list. * To Unsubscribe: send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] * with "unsubscribe aus-soaring" in the body of the message * or with "help" in the body of the message for more information.
