I'm not sending 7 log books covering 45 years flying by post so will either go down to LGW or have to speak to some one more senior!
I told them I would not send them my nine logbooks but instead I would select pages from each logbook and then the page with my CRI training as well as a couple before.
I selected the page with my PPL flight test certification (1974).
I selected pages with the 13 month stamps.
I selected samples of my instructing in Canada and in China.
Still a lot of signed true copies of selected pages, but not the whole logbooks. They did show a progression of time and experience well in excess of what is required for a CRI.
They asked me which entries denoted the CRI pages... I had made this clear, so I made it clear again.
They lost a signed copy of one of the two licences you have now as a PPL and asked for it again.
I made my anger known. Why didn’t the CAA who issued me a licence have any record of that licence! You want me to go to the effort to copy it again, get a signature again, because you lost it and do not have your own record!
I’d report the CAA to ICAO and they can be red listed.
Like CAA assisted CAAT to remove being flagged by ICAO, FAA, EASA, maybe Thai CAAT should come and teach CAA how to do their job efficiently and in line with modern technology.
If they can lose paperwork like this can we ever trust them with our valuable personal logbooks? NFW!
I am so very angry with what has happened in UK aviation.
If all this stuff contributed to safety I would accept it.
I hate inefficiency, and incompetence in those who profess otherwise.
