PPL ground exams:
The SA CA has decreed that SA PPL exams can only take place at 4 designated centres from May 1st: Midrand (near Joberg), Cape Town, Durban or Port Elizabeth. The 'industry' is onto it big time trying to stop the change, and may do so, with 'economic' arguments - it's a case of watch and see.
'type' ratings on PPLs. When I went there in November, there were strong rumours of a change away from 'types' to a weight limit system for SEP aircraft (like we had before JAR). The rumours even had a date - this coming summer - but again, it will happen if it happens, so 'types' it is until it isn't.
edit: ps: by 'summer' i meant 'UK summer' ie: june/july
