I am just curious. What is the ruling for the following: 1) You completed a integrated program on say September of 2023, wrote your SAMRA and SARON both in December of 2023.

When will the 5 years Frozen ATPL date start? Would it be from the sign off or from the time you wrote both exams?

Therein lies part of the problem, when students (generally) only see one method of completing a certain exercise (or one technique, etc.) it can be a disservice to them later on.

Hello I recently failed my Class 4 Instructor Flight test. In the coming days I will be going up again with the same examiner. I understand my previous mistake and have taken all measures to make up for any short comings. In the worse possible scenario if a instructor trainee fails a second or third...
