Hugh,
I am not trying to catch any one out.
As far as I now understand,I can do it my group aircraft with any suitably qualified instructor,as the flight is not a test but a training exercise.
Or have I got this wrong?
I will raise this question within the group.

According to the LAA coaching literature a suitably qualified LAA coach can sign off your bi-annual flight in your own permit aircraft, so presumably it can be your own group aircraft for CofA types as well.
