Oh get back in your box. Plenty of people manage to go through in the FAA prescribed minima. It's not rocket science.
I have outlined the minima. It is up to the candidate to meet the standard. There are no other prescribed requirements.
I have every respect for the standards of the FAA system. It has sensible prescribed minima and gives full credit for past experience.
Let's not get into a pissing match on differences between the systems. As the holder of both FAA and JAA I can pull holes in both.
You have spent way to much time hanging around here as it looks like some of the gold plating JAA loves is rubbing off on you.....
Let's just leave it what the regs dictate and state some people will do it in the minima, others will take more.
