CAA & EASA

[John Price]

Has any one recieved there new EASA licence yet based on there old CAA one ?
I sbmitted my paperwork 20th September and as yet recieved nothing.
They said about 10 working days, but we are now up to about 42 with nothing.
Experience anyone ?

It took them a month to do a simple SEP re-validation on my licence in the summer. Got all sorts of conflicting stories and excuses when, in fact, all the paperwork and payments were 100% correct. It was very annoying as I couldn't go flying when I wanted. I think they are maxed out.....

I need to renew my national ATPL/IR next year and only need a PPL/IMC now - I think it is going to be a nightmare trying to research my options and get a definitive answer!

Guess what, 57 working days later and a bright blue CAA Flight Crew Licence holder has arrived on my mat.

Yep you guessed it.

No licence inside.

The waiting continues.

Well guess what, a bang on the door and the man from Fed Ex delivered another licence holder but this one has my new Part FCL licence within.

Not very impressive.

Still, 58 days to arrive could've been worse.

The good news is that I can speak English forever, it says so, at the bottom level 6.
