Flying Instructors & Examiners A place for instructors to communicate with one another because some of them get a bit tired of the attitude that instructing is the lowest form of aviation, as seems to prevail on some of the other forums!

Possibly with the stapler required to deal with the volumes of paperwork?

I always found 5.56mm more than sufficient, personally. Ridiculous that I did a SEP ST the other day where the paperwork took longer than the flight (and I didn't rush the candidate on the flight!!). I suspect the responsible person(s) at the CAA has little/no experience of examining within the industry - the EASA FEH is due out in 2013, according to their working group. I wonder how they fail to see the problem with that?

In the last one I did there was one sheet of paper for each minute in the air and it took longer to fill in and copy than the chox times. I have to keep reminding myself of the EASA objectives to retain sanity
(c) to promote cost-efficiency in the regulatory and certification
processes and to avoid duplication at national and
European level;
Have you noted that it is the candidate who is supposed to complete the forms? Most wouldn't have a clue! I now show candidates the forms published by EASA, which must meet the purpose, just to emphasise that this disaster is home bodged.

I think there is a wonderful business opportunity for selling an examiner kit containing printers, blue ink refills, a stand-by generator and 40 carrier pigeons with oversized cargo containers.
