This whole EASA thing is an utter farce in my opinion.
99% of the users don't want it but it is being forced on us!
We need to complain loud and clear to our political "servants".
Why on earth we didn't stick to (UK) national licences beggars belief.
We're now snowed under with a mountain of bureaucratic nonsense (with no accountability for those imposing same), a "system" which is unfit for purpose, government officials who haven't got a clue what all this stuff means, not to mention it all costing the users more money as well as wasted time!
A licence is just a bit of paper that says the holder is qualified to exercise a privilege - WHY has it been made so complicated?
