How does one get a composite sign-off?

Friend of mine has just bought a composite aircraft, (Slingsby). She employs a couple of licensed engineers and would like to know how they get signed-off to work on composite a/c. Slingsby apparently don’t answer e-mails and the CAA are apparently unable to tell her how to go about it. Do you peeps know please?
:confused:

I've found Slingsby to be very helpful. John Pool is the man to talk to though I think he's away just now. Switchboard is 01751 432474.

As far as getting signed off is concerned, I don't know but I'm told it involves sending your engineers to get trained by Slingsby or having them come down and sign off your work for a while.

Your friend could also talk to Stapleford - they're going through the process.
