FFF - Not only nit-picking but also wrong.

Appendix 1b to JAR-FCL 1.055 -

(c) The skill test for the instrument rating is to be taken in any JAA Member State at the discretion of the Authority that approves the training. A FTO providing approved training for the instrument rating outside JAA Member States will need to make arrangements for the approved course to include acclimatisation flying in the JAA Member State of the approving Authority or in the airspace of any JAA Member State at the discretion of the approving Authority prior to any student taking the instrument rating skill test.

Andy - A JAA CPL(A) will not be issued unless the required training has been completed at a FTO approved to provide that training by a JAA member state.

Sensible - NAC may well gain approval for the CPL(A) and, even, the IR(A) at some time in the future. However, the original question (remember that?) concerned training in a 9-week window commencing in in March. Unless NAC is guaranteed to gain approval in the next 5 weeks, it's not really a contender.
