What did you say cant hear a bloody thing
No hearing not bad just one ear not as hot as the other due scuba diving with a cold
One thing I have clarified which is causing major concern and also a misconception concerns Derogation!
Derogation concerns flight crew licencing and EASA licences.
It has nothing to do with dual licence requirements which has been moved to 2014 plus one year dispensation for those on a conversion course.
You are not flying illegally into some countries NOW!
EASA did move to 2014 for the sole reason of gaining a Bi Lateral with the USA remember the USA have a Bi Lateral with transport Canada a system fairly similar to our own.
There is a high powered meeting in June with both sides motivated.
This will not mean little Joe will be able to sidestep EASA by gaining an FAA Licence but it may mean ATP holders with certain experience and hours will have an easier route.
