Perhaps this could be copied to the Instructor/ Examminer forum for discussion.
Good idea! Perhaps the FI involved might see it and take appropriate action - it would be just this poor lad's luck for someone at the CAA to spot the Total NM as 146, as I did, and not check up on the actual distance.
but many points to considder.
He also doesn't appear to have any drift lines plotted (maybe his school doesn't teach that) or the wind direction / maximum drift. Perhaps they were elsewhere on his chart. I'm sure there are other things but I'm not going to go looking for them. I'll post something on the FI forum with a link to this and hope they take up the cause. I'll be very interested to hear what they have to say.
