Thing, sorry for the miss understanding!
Guy's my beef is with EASA and the CAA on this 1,
I can not recommend doing the IMCr enough... I really really really advise people to do it before april and always have!
It's the fact these people can just change the rules out of the blue and the result is a few grand out of the direct pockets of us!
I am pissed off that my 'proudly earned' and expensive IMC rating can just be swept from me unless i get my wallet back out...
Imagine the DVLA trying the same thing
