I had a commercial student pass his flight test mid-August, and he had a job to go to straight away.
2 weeks after the flight test his paperwork was sent back by Flight Crew Licencing. Why?
1/. Despite the fact he had held a PPL(A) since 1994, they had no record of his endorsement for SPEA <5700kg; and
2/. Despite the fact that CASA's logo appears on the bottom of his ASIC, they had no evidence that he had been subjected to a Security check.
His licence was issued on 28 September - but he's missed out on the job
