Pre FIC course requirements
Give 'us yer opinion on an argument, would'ya??
One person says that to attend an FIC course as a student in order to gain an FI(R) rating you must have passed all the commercial written examinations (as per a CPL wannabe).
Same person also wears blind it says so in LASORS and JAR FCL1.
The FIC instructor (who is also an FIE) says - with reference to his own examiners handbook) - that this is not the case, and you can attend the course, and have an FI(R) added to your PPL, without sitting the writtens. (Of course, you could not be paid for tuition given).
Your opinion...or interpretation of the rules???
