You make a good point Whopity, people shouldn't confuse privileges with qualifications.
The assertion that an FI(A) without CPL TK can ONLY teach a LAPL is incorrect. You can by, different routes, gain the privileges to teach for the issue of other qualifications even if you don't have grandfather rights. The entries on another licence I have seen about are as follows:
FCL 905.FI applies as in (a)(b)(e)(g)(IR(R))(h)/For LAPL only
It must be a niche teaching LAPL, IMC/IR(R), MEP and night qualifications along with RT Exams and ground exams. Actually, there is nothing stopping a PPL instructor holding a flight examiner certificate either as far as I know. I don't know how many IFR hours this chap has but I know he holds a full EASA IR and if over 200 IFR hours then any reason for not being able to teach, for example IR for candidates training via the CB-IR route?
