Paul lives in Herefordshire, not Hertfordshire fortunately. But this does go back to the issue of microlight pilots and safety

I think this is the same incident that Saitek reported in an earlier topic. I hadn't realised the "light aircraft" was a microlight. It's unfortunate but I must agree with Mark on this. I'm surprised it hasn't happened long before now.

Read "Propellerhead" by Antony Woodward if you get the chance. This certainly opened my eyes to the attitude of some of these microlighters.

Yes Fozzer fortunately lives in Herefordshire but I on the other hand live right on the border of London and Hertfordshire so that was almost right on my doorstep .I  read that story in the Metro this morning too and saw it briefly on the London news last night. That is my local airfield and the place i am taking my flying lessons (when i get the money) . here is the scan from the newspaper this morning.

Elstree is not far from where my mum lives
I hope the officers aren't anyone I know...

Its also where they film a lot of the stuff that goes on TV here in the UK like Eastenders or Big Brother. I hope it wasnt anyone you know too Ozzy or anyone that any of us know.

Hi eno...!
...You can't get rid of me that easily... ...!
Most of my microlighting is carried out under the safety of Golden Gate Bridge.... ...!
(When Ozzy's not around)... ...!

Isn't it amazing...you look out at that big blue empty sky above you and you think, "How on earth can two small aircraft collide with each other..."...?
...but sadly, they do..

I think this is the same incident that Saitek reported in an earlier topic.
