RT costs

A simple quick question.

just got passed my RT test prior to my newly gained CPL.

So I paid £70 to the instructor for the RT test, Having now looked at the piece of paper there is a section for paying the CAA more money.

Am I right in thinking I have to pay them £59 as per in thier scheme of charges to have it issued.

Knowing the CAA I reckon I know what the answer will be but I will not be passing monies to anyone least of all the CAA if I don't have too.

Now for a little rant...

Bugs me a bit too I have to pay for the issue of my CPL £194 when I already paid them £637 for the bloody test. £300 quid to the examiner I know but £337 to the CAA for what? Probably entry onto a database and a fax to the flight school. And then £194 for issue. I'd like to see a cost analysis breakdown for this it would be very interesting to see how they justify the costs. Do I mind YES I work bloody hard for my money a lot harder than the computer clerks at the CAA. Any one from the CAA reading I would just like to give you a two fingered salute. Bunch of thieves.

Thats better, been on my chest for ages that one.

Back to work now and time to save for my IR conversion.

Replys much appreciated
