Include instructors/examiners names.
The AOPA qualification is really irrelevant as it was never really an approved CAA course and all this is a bit of an insult to those of us who have had excellent aerobatics outside the AOPA aerobatics course and flown aerobatics on a variety of aircraft.
Again, another example of EASA not thinking things through.
Thanks - Sounds like a good pointer on the book. It’s one I have on the shelf, and a quick scan of the contents suggests it covers most
/ all of the EASA specified topics.
I was away from flying when EASA kicked in... am only now just understanding the changes since JAA.
