If you think I'm not reading the posts then I'm not making my point well; sorry about that.
My reading of what bose and others are saying is that EASA etc are looking for a harmonised PPL/IR, and that this will be justification to remove the UK IMCR.
If this is true...
...then what bose is doing may undermine the IMCR, so it is disingenuous to say that the future of IMCR is not his concern.
If this is not true...
...them please reassure me so. Please reassure me that the existence (or not) of an accessible PPL/IR will make absolutely no difference to the future of the UK IMCR.
