The Commission is likely to propose another postponement probably of 1 year because the BASA itself first needs to be amended before we can adopt the PPL Annex. If it goes through, this postponement would become law in February 2015 , so well before the deadline of April 2015.
Note that any proposal would need to be approved by the EASA Committee.
I don’t have a written reference for the above but checked it is OK to post.

What’s the Scottish tail sign going to be?

Well, I’m knee deep in converting my FAA PPL and IR, so I’m going to go ahead and march forward. I’ve already spent the money on a medical and written exams.

Man this is expensive. Medical, written exams, check rides, flight training for the IR, RT exam! What great employment creating legislation!
What on earth is this all about? Converting FAA IR to EASA CB-IR and written exams? RT exam? I must have missed something.
