Have you folk figured out yet why this stupidity exists?

My enquiries re the GPC & GPL is that they are
perpetual, but only valid if you hold a current
GFA membership for the GPC and a current AVID or
ASIC card for the GPL. Of course the AVID card
will cost you about $150/3 years. I think the ASIC card is more.

Jenny,
Stop whinging/worrying: Put in anything you
like, but quite obviously not somebody or an
organisation that is deceased! In theory they
have to have a valid email address. However if
you are not in a hurry you might just make up
something and see how you go. Hey guys, what
might be an interesting email address to use
here? This is a box ticking exercise to be sure.
The essential thing is that CASA has YOUR contact details.
Your last question is interesting. Please let us all know what you discover.
Good luck.
Gary

Hi Simon, and everyone
Just had another look at the CASA paperwork, and
thought I'd try to fill it in for the heck of it.
In Section C: Applicant Declaration it says
"I authorise CASA to send a copy of all
communications regarding THIS application to my training provider
Contact Name Contact Email "
What are you supposed to put in here? Your
gliding Club? CFI? Does anybody know?
And when you get the GPL is it perpetual like the PPL?
Regards
Jenny

Pilot License on the way to an FAA Glider Pilot's License
Some months ago, I asked some questions here on
this list about how to get a âGlider Pilot
Certificateâ on the way to getting a CASA âGlider Pilot Licenseâ.
I got a variety of helpful responses directly
and indirectly, along with a few folks basically wishing me luck !!
Well, I actually did manage to do it in the end
- it took months, but the CASA GPL turned up in
the mail today (as an endorsement on my Part 61 license).
For those of you who either want to do the same
thing, or for those who are simply masochists,
Iâve just spent some happy time today writing down the journey so far.
Iâve done that mostly in the hope that others
may find it helpful to make their own (similar)
journey easier, if they should wish to undertake
that journey themselves in the future.
Here it is:
