I just hope that someone in the ENAC, the person at the top of the pile of S... will become aware of their antiquated system and do something positive. This doesn't mean talk about it for years and years but make an ACTION. Or is that expecting too much from the Italians.
It appears that we need to post the notice of Deregistration at Bergamo airport (our helicopter has never been there as it is based in UK) where it will hang for 70 days. This process is to allow the dozy Italians the chance to delay the whole lenghty process if they suspect that there are any outstanding bills which have not been paid or there are things like mortgages to settle.
However the Euroean accepted standard for this procedure will sweep this crappy system under the carpet and do it in an organised way. For once the Brittish system is certainly the best in all respects. Thanks CAA. ENAC you are last century news!
