I recently (1 year ago) completed my conversion over here in the uk and I think one thing is cast in stone and that is if the WAAC is waiting for the UK CAA to send them something or take action on something else then they and subsequently everybody else will be waiting a long time.
Most things move at a snail pace over here, lots of red tape and legal bollocks and masses of duplication of paper work and computer files etc etc etc.
This place is steaming full speed ahead and should be in the 18th century by at least...... sometime in the future.
