Recommend a M/R for some OLD lads to have a dabble

I've been looking at similar things John. Not sure how easy it will be to see compared to BEB suggestion. -

This look like fun. 1 not so "old" lad interested where this may lead us. I fancy having a go at this as well John. Cheers -
True - enjoy your break Dave

Hi Dave Nice job mate! Are you planning on making Corfu a visit this year? Best Regards Bob Rowland
-
Just back from Corfu - have been over there twice a year for the past 4 or 5 years, with absolutely no problems at all. You may need to take it out of it carry case - but that's all

Hi Dave Are you not an examiner or involved in examining flyers? I am glad to see you appreciate the challenges faced.
-
You raise a good point Dave I would follow the documented process and pass on what I see and hear Likewise I wouldn't pass a candidate on what I have seen over the previous weeks. Perhaps we should only take our own club members thought the scheme, after all we are Club Examiners That way we would know their level of proficiency over a longer period of time. I struggle to see how retaking the test would deal with this issue. Edited By Bob Rowland on 24/05/2015 07:54:47

Ps - Peter I would attend a workshop - when and where? Perhaps you could tell me when my area will be holding one, as they seem unable to communicate in any shape or form.

An examiners ability to fly the test doesn't make him a great examiner - fact. As an examiner I am watching how a flyer conducts himself every day he is at the field, not just on " test day" Safety in the pits, plane set up, courtesy and care for other flyers all help me make my decision. The candidate should show a level of consistency every flight not just for two rolls in both directions on the day. As you say John " it ain't that difficult" You need confidence in your decision and the support of your club. If the ACE would like to come and watch me conduct a "test" the he is more than welcome, and I will take on his feedback. I for one won't be attending any retest - In true Dragons Den style "I'm out!" Very interesting debate - great job John for bringing it up!

Looks Great mate! Is there enough of an exit for cooling purposes? Cheers
