I see what you're saying since the application dates on the licenses were sometime in January. Although, it's the most absurd logic I've ever come across! So if person A and person B both trained on the same aircraft and the same place, Person A by virtue of submitting his papers by Feb'11 ( 3years after the CoA has expired) gets a BE76 endorsed on his/her license, but person B due to reasons X,Y and Z submits the exact same papers a couple of months later and gets refused?
Absolutely unfair and ghastly don't you think? Someone has to do something about this indifference shown by people ruling the roost in this organisation.
What a shame!
