I wonder how much the impact of JAR on the PPL currency will benefit or harm our trade. Most members at my club do not fly 12 hours a year and maybe they will give up? The flight with an instructor has to be a good move though and will regain some trade from syndicates / private ownership. There may be a bit of a shortage at the moment but I expect that we'll be swimming with instructors if the Airline market dries up! Such a shame most people see the BCPL - CPL/IR upgrade route as the way ahead at the moment. Then again we might start getting circa 35K a year - Then again! Anyone offer me a job in the West Country???
