Some research was done, and it was found he didn't even hold an instructor rating himself. A stink was created, and CAA reluctantly agreed that he needed to hold the rating. The local schools rubbed their hands together with glee, anticipating giving this d1ck some of his own medicine back, but he slunk up to the Brisbane area, where people hadn't yet heard of him, and did the rating.
But he was still a d1ck.
AC,
That rings a bell or a loud gong really, I had forgotten that one, the Brisbane end was hand picked, as well.
Tootle pip!!
