CASA Examiner in UK
Does anybody know of a CASA approved testing officer / or UK FE(H) with CASA approval ?
I would like to add a Night Rating to my Australian CPL(H) in the UK, but CASA's initial response is that I must be examined by a CASA approved ATO.
Thanks in advance for the flood of responses I am bound to receive !

If you have it endorsed on your UK licence it should transfer to your Australian licence (??)
As long as you can show that you have done the dual instruction (10 hours for a night rating) and then a test, then the night rating becomes perpetual (I think).
Not so with the instrument rating. Must do a test when you arrive in country to have that endorsed.
CASA has a pretty good website. Look up the CAO's on the the web and search night rating.

You will have about as much luck as I had, trying to get CASA to recognise the simulator training on an S76 at FSI as being the equivalent of a Biennial Flight Review. Zero.
"There is nobody at FSI who holds approvals to do anything under CASA regs."
So, despite the training being far superior to anything a testing officer would be game to pull in flight, there was no recognition. I had to hire a B206 to do the BFR, despite not having flown it for 3 years and being unlikely ever to fly it again - well, at least for another 2 years.
