Next bone question.

Consider the A2/1 King Air QFI. Under the new system he can only get a FI(A) with restrictions.

He now wishes to become an ME instructor - FI-CRI-ME

My understanding is that to add ME priviliges to your FI rating one needs to hold an unrestricted FI rating.

So does our highly experienced RAF multi engine AFT QFI have to complete 100 hrs of civilian flight instruction including supervising 25 solo flights (under supervision of another FI of course) before he is allowed to complete the training required to add ME to his FI rating?

Would it be easier for him to forget all about an FI rating and just go for a CRI acknowledging that he would be limited in who he could then provide instruction too?

If anyone can confirm or deny I would appreciate it. Likewise if anyone can provide an email for CFS HQ at Cranwell please do - I can't access the intranet from civvy street!

My head hurts.
