GLIDER PILOT LICENSING

The European Aviation Safety Authority *(EASA) recently released a 650
page report on pilot licensing and instructing standards. *A large
portion of the report relates to glider pilot licensing.

Not familiar with EASA procedures or their web site, so I'd like to confirm
that the original document(s) in question are NPA 2008-17a, -17b (the big
one), and -17c PDF files that can be found online he

Yes, that's it! There have been thousands of reactions during the
comment period for this Notice of Proposed Amendment (NPA), by
individuals as well as by organizations like Europe Airsports
(integrating the European Gliding Union). The reactions are now being
reviewed by EASA. A Comment Response Document (CRD) should be issued
shortly. We will then have a much better idea about what will happen
to our licenses.
