But needs to go up having been told what R/T examiners are charging for a bit of ground school and test.
BEB,
I'm charging £50 for ground school and test, additional £20 for the Com written if they haven't already done it (usually the microlight lot). My justification for the charge is
a) loss for flying revenue for a morning (which is what it usually winds up taking)
b) recovery of Examiner fee from CAA.
It's very rare for a candidate to present capable of doing the test straight off - I'm not in the habit of testing people I know are going to fail and I do try to be reasonably straight with the test. I'm satisfied when people
a) say they've learned a lot by doing the test and
b) I hear them on the radio subsequently being a lot more professional
