AAIB recommendation 2021-014 mandates >80J to be subject of CAA regulation on design standards, construction, maintenance and reliability. So my 2kg glider doing 20mph has just about 80J kinetic energy, and is to be the subject of the Campaign Against Aviation (aka CAA)'s scrutiny. Are they serious? I can only hope not... Surely the 80J is a misprint! I have put this question forward to the BMFA's Question Time night this Thursday. Am I alone?
