Re: Where have all the aircraft gone?!

It's the LAA website that is blocking it. It is trying to open it within the LAA website, rather than taking you to a new page. Right click and open in new window works. https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/jorf/id/JORFTEXT000043328559 et immatriculés dans un Etat partie à l'accord sur l'Espace économique...

Re: Malcolm McBride's Safety Spot -- thanks

Big thanks from me as well Malcolm.

Safety Spot article is read second. I check the classified adds first just in case there is a once in a life-time deal, that I need to move fast on. Not happened yet. :roll:

Re: OFCOM Change Of Licence Requirement

If it is listed as 200W, then that will be the output power, though not all will get to the antenna. Are you trying to use the input power to compensate for the unkn...

Re: EC device approval.
