G-RICH, I like what you said here...
That and the end of FTOs. As someone above says, there is no problem with the "shop floor" instructors. Have the CAA stick the syllabus and lesson plans on the Net, have instructors register their interest with the CAA and just let them do the job in a suitable aircraft which can be laid on by any flying club or organisation. It would be a bit like AMEs - just go and pick the one that suits you..
That would seem similar to the FAA Part 61 system.
