What is the difference between an IRE and IRRE. I thought there were CAA Staff Examiners and IRE's, it is difficult to keep up with this nonsense.

There is an equally crazy thread on here , where someone who does meet the requirements on a different issue, the CAA will not refund his fee, because it is his fault he did understand the regulations. Basically they told him his 1179 was valid, then told him is was not!

From what I can see, the IR therectical exams are likely to fall below ATPL theory, so I cant see why and ATPL holder would need to take them, IFR comms was not part of the ATPL but the FRTOL exam many year I seem to rember did include IFR. Is it the case of EASA and the CAA are not thinking things through again.
