Does anyone know how long the CAA are taking to issue licenses at the moment? The website quotes 2 weeks but they've had my application longer than that already.
Called today and was told that it was with a Licensing Officer and no they had no idea how long it would take due to sheer volume of work. And no they don't know how long they are taking generally "It's just sheer volume of work".
I did notice they weren't too busy to bill my credit card for the fee less than a week after I posted the forms to them
.
There's also a recorded message on the phoneline sayng that EASA comes into effect on 8th April, but they won't be issuing any EASA licenses until July. Does that mean if they haven't pulled the preverbial out by then I may be waiting months?
There used to be a page on the CAA website detailing the oldest license applications being processed, which at least gave some idea, but that seems to have disappeared.
Frustrating!!
