Whopity we are going to disagree:
It's down to what is written in Part FCL
FCL.900 (a) General (1) (ii) "An instructor must hold a certificate
appropriate to the instruction being given"
I do not believe a CRI is an "appropriate certificate" to carry out (any)
instruction at night, whereas you, obviously, do.
its no longer the CAA's call
Unless, and until, the wording of
FCL.905.CRI CRI — Privileges and conditions
is ammended to specifically include/exclude night instruction, or there is
a court case to decide the issue, then it is the CAA, as the UK
Competent Authority, who would decide whether an EASA CRI is an
"appropriate certificate" to instruct at night.
BEagle,
Perhaps you could ask them?
