The alternatives, if some politicians got their way, would be draconian for flying abroad.
The onus in now on us to clean up our act.
As the poster quite clearly states this follows the recent jailing of a person in relation to people trafficking...one of our own
Thanks again, Jetblu.
If you are doing "our act " properly there shouldn't be anything to clean up !
On the other side of the coin if BF turn up six hrs early and spend the day sitting in their cars on an airfield ( as has happened to us recently ) before our allotted arrival time and then a further hour and a half hassling two of us in a two seat aircraft whilst another half dozen overloaded boats arrive less than 30 miles away, maybe they are the ones that need to clean up THEIR act !
As I pointed out to them they would be better employed befriending us as their eyes as we coast in than making a jumped up bloody nuisance of themselves and clearly demonstrating to us that they know sod all about light aircraft in general and haven't got a clue that you can't get six people in a RV4 or for that matter parachute out of one !
