Great posting Sir!
All of us EC 120 pilots should stand together and unite as one against this bull
Eurocopter should come clean and explain exactly what the gaff is, followed by the CAA. Can you imagine the insurance implication / escalations should a few things go wrong, and Eurocopter walks away from it saying, "sorry, you did'nt do a factory course".
Who is authorized to do a factory course? Eurocopter or Broberg?
Some answers please!
Furthermore, is the suspension of EC 120 instructor's ratings now the norm all of a sudden, and if so why? Am I reading it correctly that unless you have done a Eurocopter "factory course", you are not competent to fly the machine or instruct on it????
I think there's a snake in the grass here.........
