how ridiculous the CASA exams are.
I did my CPL theory at Parafield TAFE back in the early 80's and had an absolutely brilliant lecturer (Bob S) who used to sit every exam on all subjects he taught, as he held the view that he could not lecture on the subject unless he could also pass the exam!

He once remarked that in one exam on a particular subject, he thought some of the questions were somewhat 'over the top...', and was subsequently unsurprised but somewhat amused to learn that at the bottom of the exam paper a candidate had boldly written the words...
"The Examiner is a pedantic Twit!!"

I believe the candidate still passed though.
