Far from not caring you seem to care an awful lot infact I would go to the lenghts of saying that the N reg thing really gets up your kilt
There is no way anyone will meet the deadline of 2012 or even 2014. The CAA have already announced that they could not cope in implementing the changes.
What changes? as the whole lot is so poorly put together that it is work in progress so dont expect any of this to hit law before 2016. I will even lay a bet on it!
Where did you get the figure of 6000 N reg pilots in Europe? I believe its more like 67000!!!
Like previous attempts there are workarounds and this is no exception.
But we have to take EASA at their word! You obviously dont like dishonesty of N REG not complying with your hard earned path to JAA and finding loopholes.
How could anything be more dishonest than what EASA have made promises about in many areas just to placate disgruntled interest groups in aviation?How dishonest can they be at railroading something through in a totally undemocratic way? How dishonest can they be in declaring that their sole intention for delaying till 2014 is for a bi lateral agreemnet?
A Bi lateral agreement has already been signed with an option to add FCL.
EASAs stated intention?
With all the dirt that has been going around with EASA I am sure you will agree that it makes the dishonesty and loopholes of N reg appear like the Pope!!
MadJock you have a lot more than N reg at stake what are you fighting to protect? as it certainly isnt the health of aviation in Europe N reg or otherwise.
