CBT test in China
PL,
To me, even 1:45 is a long time for a proficiency test.
I checked the link to the IAOPA site and I can see where the PPLs are coming from. Reading your other posts its clear to me that you have the interests of aviation safety through good communications at heart, both for the professional pilot and the 'Sunday Flier'.
With a worldwide membership of 470,000 IAOPA members, a very small individual levy of a few Euros each would fund the research and validation necessary to provide a develop and validate a test optimised for PPLs. A link up with one of the major testing organisations would give you suitable venues everywhere to conduct the testing. If ICAO are giving approval for different tests that are specific to ATCs and commercial pilots they should be in a position to work with you to help you acheive a PPL specific test. With that approval, IAOPA sould then approach the Civil Aviation Authorities in each country to have the test endorsed.
