sierracharlie,
That document seems pretty clear; thank you. I'll send a copy to my AME. I find it absolutely horrendous that not only the AMEs, but also the people at the CAA, don't know their own rules - the lady I talked to was quite adamant about it.
Pirate,
Trial lessons are NOT pleasure flights, period. The two are totally different. This has been discussed at length in other places. There is no muddying of the waters so far as that is concerned, so don't let's go over it all again here, where we have other important issues that clearly need sorting out.
