Hey Ronald,
Back up, re read.
I said that it had recently been described TO ME like that (from a long time
CAP check pilot who actually advised against joining.... could be a local
situation). As far as my own tests, last count was 7 knowledge exams and 6
checkrides passed.

What are you talking about? There is a log for your time and write ups
ect.
for the aircraft and that is it. If that is to much for you to understand
I
question how you passed the PP ground school and written.

Yes there are form in CAP much of the and test are online and I have not
seen
one that was more than needing a little study work to complete or pass.

Don't let this type of statement sway anyone's idea. Try it and see and
make
your own long term decision.

The training and testing is just like what a good volunteer fire
department
would demand if you joined just different.

Remember: "You volunteer your time, but once there you are a professional
and
the training and commitment required to be professional is required".

paperwork. If you can't fill out your own 1040 each year nor enjoy
doing
it, imagine making it part of your pre-flight."

I've been doing a little research off and on for the past few months,
but can't seem to find anyone who is actually involved.

So - what's the story? Is it a good organization to get involved in?
