I don't think you should resign as there was no failure on your part, nor do I believe that Phil is correct or incorrect, other than him expressing his opinion on the matter. Over a period of time, one gets a good idea of the different mindsets of the different posters.I give up. If Phil is correct then it was PRA's fault and I should resign for my failure.
In this thread I have seen some posters that would gladly see Vance blamed in the name of regulations. For what, really? For denting a keel? Is that substantial damage? I had a hard landing several years ago in my tandem AC and I dented the keel and two prop blades. What was anyone to learn from it other than myself, as the damage was so minimal.
If that be the case, then how many are reporting themselves for flying while not adhering to weather minima, flying in proximity to persons or objects less than 500 feet, flying over congested areas, etc.
Vance has himself admitted in great detail as to what went wrong, and what lessons were learnt in the process.
Greg Mills (Gerg) has illustrated quite clearly how low one can go as a person. I'd be surprised if he gets much business for his Yamaha conversions. I for one will not buy from him.
