I would be happy to support anything that could be done to alert people to just how appalling the CAA are. Having lived and worked in the US for a couple of years it highlights this fact even more. Examples -
Rude, arrogant employees many of which are failed pilots with an axe to grind.. .Same employees unable to do their job because for some reason they are unable to read and understand their own regulations - hence customer getting a different answer for every query.. .Outrageous charges for landing, ATC, licence issue etc.. .On the subject of licence issue - why the f**k do they have to take your logbooks away from you for weeks - this is an absolute scam and outrage which really pisses me off. Why the hell can they not check them while you are there and issue the licence and give it back to you same day.
Basically I couldn't have less respect for any organisation in the whole world. They need to sort themselves out in a big way.
