Mr A was effectively a student, according to club rules, and as an instructor I was Captain. The thing that frustrates me the most is that Mr A has been at least advised to do any further check flights by the CAA, effectively leaving the door open for him to make the same mistake in the future, or worse. Then what happens? I truely believe the CAA have shown great neglect in dealing with this situation. Not sour grapes, I openly admitted my mistake and took my punishment like any man should.
