Really?
Really Yes.
I was practicing for the french precision flying competition 10 years or so ago and on landing had the then aeroclub CFI start to ball me out as he had seen me sideslipping on final as he cycled to the club... Luckily the then President (ex FAF) wandered in and came to my defence or I would have been turfed out "for deliberately flying with crossed controls which is not allowed under the JAR syllabus, so we dont do this at our aeroclub either"....

I wonder what the syllabus will look like in another ten years!
