>Easaman, BA cannot hand out licences the CAA does. I think you are getting confused that they were issued B1 company codes even though the A+P covers no electrics.
I am not getting confused!
There was a fellow of mine in the nineties working both for US-Carriers with our A&P and both of us were working European Airliners as contractors with our A&P.
He went to BA and I stayed with the US-Carrier.
We lost our Airwortyness Release Autority, when the JAR-66 came up and I was sent to Oxford for five month with two other fellows to get the licence.
The 5 month B&B + the training + exam fees + travelling was a huge sum!
My fellow got some years later the same licence with his A&P by working for BA.
As you know A&C's when they converted to JAR-66 got restrictions 1 & 9 like the BA A&P!!!
The funny thing is that we could change Batteries/Generators before the conversion and after the conversion not any more!
Another funny thing is that we both were electicians in our first trade,
with having restrictions on electrics & avionics in the first JAR-66 licence.
