CAA only prosecuting when there's a threat to aviation?

I think what Steve was saying is that neither of the two prosecutions so far were any kind of a threat to aviation. Robert Knowles was a risk to some middle-management yes-man's annual bonus and Mark Spencer was guilty of showing Blackpool in a positive light on a rainless day.

Indeed - it looks like the CAA are only interested whenever there's an airprox or something similar (transgression into airport boundaries etc).

Given the small amount of resources the CAA have, it makes sense.

The moral of the story here is to stay behind a bush so PC Plod can't see you :laugh:
