    Flying and Bushcraft

    I have a private pilots licence, currently lapsed as I have taken up skydiving and cant afford to do both :rolleyes: My view on this is that a single commercial holiday flight to just about anywhere makes a much bigger carbon footprint than a whole years worth of private light aircraft...
