Alex, I'm gad to hear that a 22GP team has been established!
The JAR-FCL wording was:
The knowledge, experience and skill gained in military service will be credited towards the relevant requirements of JAR–FCL licences and ratings at the discretion of the Authority. The policy for the credit given shall be reported to the JAA.
The EASA part-FCL wording states:
The knowledge, experience and skill gained in military service shall be given credit for the purposes of the relevant requirements of Annex I in accordance with the elements of a credit report established by the Member State in consultation with the Agency.
So, the CAA could argue that it is up to the Member State, not specifically the NAA, to sort out the 'credit report'.....
No matter - it seems that 22Gp are on the case, which is certainly reassuring.
