Wot Beagle says.
EASA are strangling the lifeblood out of GA by unnecessary over regulation.
I never thought I would say it but bring back the good old CAA we all used to love to hate. At least we knew where we were, before these europeans decided to remove our lifetime licenses, national ratings, impose retesting on qualified experienced pilots, interfere with foreign instructor qualifications and aircraft use, and I havent even started on the old JAA malarky of 90 day rules , biennial instructor flights, increased hours currency requirements, annual MEP tests etc, all shown by the CAA safety review to have been completely unnecessary and a prime case of jobs for the boys....
