Correct - the drafter of the ANO has had 5 years to sort this out but has abjectly failed to do so. So we re-validated people in accordance with JAR-FCL 1.....because that was the initial intent.
Nowadays it seems that the legal people at the CAA are more concerned that the requirements in LASORS reflect the incorrect statements in the ANO than make any effort to get the ANO corrected. It's the same malaise which has afflicted NPPL requirements; it's been known for nearly 2 years that the ANO is wrong concerning SSEA re-validation requirements but again the CAA has failed to move with any speed to correct things.
