Not sure of the Law on this one:
The CAA has said that an EASA Licence will be valid for
Annex II aircraft (it didn't have to).
The CAA has said it will continue to issue IMC Ratings on
National Licences (it didn't have to)
Can the CAA not say that National Licences will allow pilot
privileges on EASA aircraft in UK Airspace only?
Hence allowing IMC privileges if someone holds both a
National Licence and an IMC rating.
