Much like policing, government, etc it is best done by consent. The more the CAA alienates GA and seems rather disconnected.
When you have the CAA saying look up pilots names and addresses and go contact them directly and you contrast that with the CAA airspace regulator whose name is public but likes to threaten legal action against those who mention it on forums.
I get the feeling that more and more people will try to just steer clear of the CAA and effectively separate from the system. Without some sort of sensible steps I feel this is the direction we are headed, which is a shame as I've found now that the skies are getting busier pilotaware has been pretty good when I've been out and about. However i've also seen many machines that weren't popping up and I can't really blame them if they're worried about a heavy handed government regulator which makes some pretty baffling decisions and interpretations.
