Whopity, contacting an Euro MP is not an easy task, in some cultures you will not get any response unless you proceed through connections. Political parties are sealed entities, inaccessible to outsiders.

Plus because of rejection of responsibility being the norm nobody, no MP will never ever expose him/herself in defending any cause unless being personally involved.

Add to this that Brussel's parliament is plagued by absenteeism, you get the picture, you will never get any answer, let alone any help.


Contacting EASA through their website as I often did for various issues, gets you a generic answer, referring you to your own CAA, and giving you a link to initiate a procedure with the European Union legal department for breach of regulations .

Time consuming to start a legal procedure, outright dangerous to contact CAA, may expose you to repercussions in terms of retaliatory measures, e.g. when needing a revalidation.. So everybody knows, but turns a blind eye.


I have had in the past some valuable help from EASA experts taking matters in their own hands and giving valuable information, but these people are now in pension.
