UAS, not EFT

But are those exams taken as seriously as they once were? Or is it a matter of "Fill in the answers; if you don't know, then ask someone who does...."

It's just that my recent experience of ex-UAS people converting to PPLs is that the concept of having to pass theoretical knowledge exams seems somewhat of an alien concept to them....

I know that things have changed since the days when I did the old 'CEB' exams all in one day at Imperial College (ULAS booked the hall for the occasion); none of it was multiple-guess, it was all written and you had to get not less than 50% in any subject and an overall 60%.... But is anything actually taught to the little beggars these days?
