Tried the wine, music and Bex last night and woke up this morning realising that drinking and Bex is not a good strategy.
So here is a challenge for all you CASA licensing staff and examiners hiding out there. What is the meaning of 61.150(2)(a)(i)?
Does it mean that flight examiners can issue an operational rating (e.g. an Instrument Rating), but not an aeroplane license (e.g. a PPL Aeroplane)? Does it also mean that the only "People" who may grant a license (ie a PPL with Aeroplane category) are CASA (as mentioned in 61.150(1)? The reason I ask that is because that seems different to the way I remember it from the 20th century, where an approved testing officer in a flying school could issue PPLs (and CPLs for that matter).
