The date that the license expires would be more than helpful for a level 6 or the date that the level 4 or 5 runs out.

Exactly as the document you quoted says. If its in the FAQ's why do we have to be different for no real reason apart from "policy"

Just something that gives a valid until date.

I really can't understand why there is so much resistance to put a date on it. Or stick (level 6) after the entry. It takes 30 secs to set up the template so it automatically puts in the same date as the Flight Crew license in section IX.

Its not as if the remarks section is full of other info.

Whats the problem with a small change so crew don't get grief?

Its all very well arguing the toss in London that there is no requirment for it. Its a completely different when your in some Airport discussing the Issue with some one that could put you in the nick for the night.

French Flight Ops inspectors do alot of things that in the UK would be considered outside there scope of an inspection. Even had one of the open an emergency exit, thankfully we had a TRE in the other aircraft to sort the tech log out. And they have a habit of grounding you while they argue the toss.
