  12. All awards granted shall be monitored by Coachmakers’ personnel and subject to periodic review, normally every six months, and assessment for the purpose of supporting the recipient and ensuring compliance. Should recipients not progress with their stated training for which the award has been made in reasonable time, as determined by the Coachmakers dependent on the particular award, the award may be suspended and no further payments made.
  13. The recipient of any flying award shall not embark on any other flying training course during the period of the award. Engagement in other forms of flying training, including theoretical study, may result in the suspension or cancellation of the award at the discretion of the Coachmakers.

  16. Should any award recipient become unable to maintain a current appropriate medical certificate during the course of the scholarship, the Coachmakers reserve the right to temporarily suspend or permanently withdraw the scholarship. In the unlikely event of this situation any spent funds would not be recovered.
