The BBAC technical committee have now issued guidelines for the response to an EASA "Comment Response Document" that potentially could change, for the worse, the way balloon maintenance and inspections are done.
It is now up to us to comment and make sure we are heard by responding to the document by May 8th 2008.
Please read and try to do your best to make a response as suggested in the document.
