It is the CAA.
They are responsible for their own aviation!
Have other EASA countries got a stupid licence as well ?
Is it the CAA interpretation of EASA rules? If so did they ever question them and ask WHY or heres a better idea, or can we do it this way (I bet the french did there own thing).
I'm sorry but if you can co*k up the issuing of a simple licence, I do not dare think what else they are capable of. Unprofessional yet again, time to take the blinkers off.
