The way that section is laid out, AMC1 FCL.1015 para (d)(5) which you have quoted appears to be applicable to all examiners, which I guess is why the statement is in Standards Document 21 requiring two test or check profiles.

As I'm sure you know, it's not the only bit of EASA which doesn't yet make sense.
UK FIE course - 5 days: EASA FIE course? How about comparing EASA PPL Skill Test and SEP Proficiency Check tolerances? LAPL Proficiency Check content? How about conducting a combined Instructor AoC and SEP LPC?

I think we have to accept that there will be CAA fees by Government decree however; the major issue is the total inconsistency in the fees applied. A day of a CAA Staff FE's time can be charged at:
FI Test £202
PPL or IMC rating Issue £195
IMC Prof Check £202
Medical Flight Test £181
IRE £1109
CRE £1641
FIE £781
Senior Examiner (SE)£1109
The entire document ORS5 No 289 is riddled with inconsistencies. The CAA has never explained the breakdown of any of its charges.

Thanks for the input
To all those who responded to my post, thank you. I have included your comments and suggestions in my letter to Andrew Haines.
I appreciate it feels like we are banging our collective heads against a brick wall but if we simply sit back and take no action when action is needed, then we are no better than those who have the power to make changes where no changes are required.
