I know, I know.
My certification had to go to a review panel at CASA. My DAME did all the normal stuff and co-ordinates the paperwork trail, but at the end of the day he only sends it to them.
My Medical bears the dreaded "Renew by CASA only" and thus can't be stamped by my DAME.
Yes I am selfish enough to keep flying, too.
The ASICs/AVIDs are a joke and $130 to put a new type on your licence is a joke and $65 to fax a copy of old mate's medical certificate is a joke. All these fees are a joke but ... for the medicals I can understand (even if I'm not happy about it personally).
Cheers
