Thanks for the answers guys. That one is really intesting Rolling Circle, I wasn't aware of the situation... Its incredible that under the JAA a member state can choose to ignore certain lines in the JAR mandate.
I have to say though, now I am really confused! In the case of EFT, if I understand correctly - they have JAA FTO #252 approval and advertise JAA CPL modular training on their website. But from what I have read the JAR-FCL 1 regs shouldn't allow them to provide CPL modular training because EFT are not based in a JAA member state?! I'm sure the guys at EFT will argue their point vehemently, but it does seems like this is a bureacratic nightmare open to interperation! (Well, I suppose this is what Europe is all about... !!!) But seriously, come the day that I am ready to spend the dosh I will be very paranoid handing it over under the rules of a situation that is totally unclear.
