Alex Whittingham!! Top Bloke!! That's all I'll say. Yes I'm ex-military, ex-slowprop and I would have qualified for the latest round of exemptions. If i'd have stayed, but no I may'd my choice and did the last of the old Consolidated Mil Exams(taught by Alex!).
Exams were still a load of boxxocks and JAR's still will be. Fact is that ME guys were and are qualified to fly WorldWide from way dot and these days even FJ Pilots have to be procedurally qualified for an IR. Notwithstanding all that, I work for the Woollypully Brigade and I don't care what you're back-ground is. As long as I feal that you are a safe and steady operator than that's good for me!!
