Beagle,
Sorry to direct everything at you, but you seem to be the one with his finger on the pulse.
So where are we putting the limit on what a PPL FI can teach under the proposed new regs? I thought it was basic PPL instruction?
Am I right that if these plans go ahead a PPL FIC instructor could train a CPL qualifed student for his or her FI(R)? The student could then eventually end up teaching to CPL level having been taught by a PPL ?
Will the new PPL instructor be able to teach IMC (if it still exists), aeros, IR, examine etc if his student is a PPL....for money? (I am not including those with grandfather rights here). If so this is surely not in the spirit of things!
