UK based FAA IR check ride - where?
A few friends in France and England have been trying to get a reply from this business
8710-1 Application Chklist
but there is no reply, emails or telephone messages, now for a long time now.
The conditions on the www site seem hard, getting all those letters from the civil aviation authority. How can a pilot get all those letters?
Are there no designated examiners going here from the USA ?

Try asking CamFlight - Advanced Avionics and Recurrent Flight Training - Welcome to CamFlight as I beleive they have an FAA IR examiner.

It is now widely known that TAA did have a (female) visiting DPE some months ago but she was stopped by the FAA from coming here, after a very short time.
Maybe there are more recent developments? Having done the last of my FAA checkrides a few years ago I no longer keep a close eye on the options.
Interesting requirements on that website. I wonder what is behind it all.

Tom Hughston is the only DPE for Europe. He spends a lot of time in France so if your willing to go over there and take a checkride, I am sure you would get a slot quicker. He is back up and running by the way.

The FAA Airmen application is now all online IACRA, not sure how if affects Euro DPEs or not:

If you have to go to France, you may as well jet off to New York or elsewhere east coast. Flights are cheap and the flight back from Detroit a few weeks ago was only 6.5 hours....oh and my flight test was only $200.
