(Apologies to the non-UK folks to whom this is not relevant - please delete
and enjoy doing so!)
It's the next PFA EC Meeting tomorrow night, and Engineering matters will
arise. In recent times I've been told that:
1) uncomplicated (i.e. no new executed mods included) permit renewals
are being processed within 1 working day
2) (although not applicable to most of us here) good progress has been
made with new type approvals
3) the mods backlog is down to 3 weeks to get a response (other than
the acknowledgement)
---From my own build I have significant doubts about item 3) above, so I'd like
to gather some data to check what I'm hearing.
If you've got issues with any of the above (e.g. permit renewal taking 3
weeks, or waiting 3 months for response on a mod), could you please send me
brief details in a private email. But please, if the delay is at your end
(you've not responded to a request for more info, or you've included
executed mods with your renewal, for example), please don't send me info
attributing that to Engineering - I'm after hard-and-fast cases!
Thanks and regards,
Jeremy
