EASA had second thoughts about the CPL knowledge requirement for PPL FIs, because not having such knowledge wouldn't be in accordance with ICAO.
So, if EASA is nervous about legislating for matters which are 'not in accordance with ICAO', why then are they buggering about with the utterly unloved one size fits no-one LAPL which itself is 'not in accordance with ICAO'?
EASA should do itself and everyone else a big favour by drawing the line at ICAO-compliant pilot licences and should devolve competence for sub-ICAO pilot licensing to national authorities in those member states which have a desire for such licences. This would require a very minor amendment to the General Regulation, but that would first need political intervention.
