Matt man
It can be stopped but only when someone with enough financial clout seriously offers a challenge in the EU courts
It has already been shown that the threat of such a challenge was enough to get the commission to rap EASA knuckles there are many points of law which would create problems
But without a serious threat of such a challenge it will slip
Through the back door unchallenged like you the whole farce angers me by the pure deception and dishonest tactics EASA have used but as I said as long as their over bloated salaries and benefits roll in what do they care about destroying the income income of others or what the costs are to comply it doesn't effect their pockets

I agree with you, the farcical process which is the EU is in no means supporting the common man, yet is designed to support the elite. I have yet to find the employer that will support the aviation department to this extent.
This is not from a cost point of view, because they all have the money, but more from the political implications. Many fingers and many pies.
I have realized this is making me a bitter and angry person, and have stated to redefine my life, and start afresh in other ventures. I will reap the last of my aviation career as long as it lasts then move on.

i would love to sit down with EASA and ask them what they are trying to achieve? The official line would be improved safety and oversight of private jet operations
But why the dual licences which is the issue with working pilots on mainly N reg based in Europe.
surely those pilots could have been issued with dual licenses simply, quickly and with a cost going into £100s not £1000s
All that would have been required is an FAA ATP being exchanged for an EASA restricted ATP ? restricted to non commercial use on N reg only and on private jets.
EASA regs would then have had equal control of those licenses at no heavy cost to existing working pilots so why all this expensive rubbish?
What has happened to the BI Lateral agreement that EASA were working around the clock to achieve ? Another false smoke screen?
I could possibly understand much younger pilots with 20 plus years still ahead to draw back these costs but what happens to older pilots who only have a few earning years left and no chance of getting back these costs? How are they to be accommodated ?
the problem we have is that we are a very fragmented group with no common voice
