But this should not be about petty posturing and totally about what is best all round. The system the BMAA has works. Enforced change just for the sake of compying with the red tape of others is quite simply daft.
I dont know what the chairman of the BMAA thinks is best continuation training wise but I do know that the BMAA does not have a safety case to answer therefore any continuation training is pointless.
The same applies to your idea of a meeting of minds somewhere halfway - WHY! Its getting a little repetitive now but the BMAA has no safety case to answer. I am sure that if it did someone would be shouting it out loud and clear - they are not.
