FYI, we're in the second half of 2017. There was an AIC about half a decade back.
Are you now going to tell me you've received, read and understood every AIC over the past 5 years? Ok, if you work in the industry, it can be expected but those of us who are weekend hobby flyers, you can't really expect us to be aware of ALL changes, especially where the guidance changes so frequently.....
