Bose, it's all very well to say 'do your own' but there are plenty of schools who don't have the time or resources to create their own manuals and who have been relying on the release of a template manual to assist in their conversions.
If they now deviate from filling in the template manual exactly as the CAA have stipulated, including conformity with these new gold-plated policies, they will presumably have their applications rejected, exposing themselves to additional approval costs amounting to £170 per hour.
And if they do conform they will have to increase their PPL course fees by £1,700 to offset the 67 hours classroom requirement, and charge additional sums to pay for a ground examiner to sit in a room while his/her student sits their TK tests.
