In the latest edition of Microlight News, I discuss some important changes to UK airspace use and in particular how we might be sharing the airspace with unmanned drones in future.
I will also discuss a worrying trend of flexwing / trike pilots not wearing their shoulder harnesses and how this has led to a number of recent accidents.
In internet news, I discuss the topic of reserve chutes on sub 70kg aircraft along with the imminent arrival of the P&M quantum GT along with the news of FlyLight aircraft distribution in the USA.
Finally. I will give you an update on my health following an unfortunate accident along with my future plans and some exciting news relating to touring opportunities in 2024 along with something at the end of the video which I hope you find useful.
Hope you enjoy.
