Oh thank god for that... The Bureaucracy coming out of EASA is overpowering. I spend more time having to do their absurd paperwork than I do flying my helicopter.
The CAA were responsible for adding some pretty onerous paperwork on top of EASA’s own not so long ago. Here we go again for ‘the good ideas club’.
I already changed my licence to Ireland, but I never actually thought leaving EASA would happen, just thought of it as insurance.
just hoping this is a “negotiating position” rather than serious intent.

How does that help in the UK, you would be better off with both licence's if you want to fly in UK and Europe.
Personally it's a total waste of time, how many changes have they made most probably to go back to our National licence in the UK,
you couldn't write the book!:ugh:

The Colour of the CAA Licence Holder will not cause the same discussion that UK Passports did -- its Blue already

well just having spent over 9 months doing paperwork importing a 350 from USA as we were the first ac to be imported using EASA 's TIPI rules, you really couldn't write a book about it !
The CAA are so undermanned that just the moving of licences last year caused horrendous delays - what chance have they got of replacing EASA by Chirstmas?

Who has ever had anything good to say about their regulator?

May be we could just go back to the Air Law book written by Taylor and Parmar... and be able to find the rules and regs all in one place. Rather than trawling from online reference to reference and ending up back in the same place without actually finding the answer.
BCARs already reflect EASA anyway so, over the next three or so years only form numbers will change, not systems - I can’t see them recreating the Type Flight Test Programmes though...hopefully!
