Budget and microlighting

[Robin Hood]

If Trevor increases the petrol price by 10c a litre for the Road Accident Fund and road maintenence, why the hell does a microlighter have to fork out for this? Or may we now land on public roads? I hope MISASA takes this up for us :D :D :D :D

Good point! But what about farmers and their tractors? Do they get refunds?

Yes they do. Diesel rebate and was a long hard fight to get that right. Doubt they would lend an ear to an 'elite' bunch of recreational people.
Would be nice to get a 36.5c per litre relief though.

I did bring this subject up about 5 years ago on the SAMicro group, and niks came of it.

I suppose there are many groups of people who should get a rebate, boats etc. oh well
