Another interesting point arises in the AIC.
Para 6.2.a. (ii)
Applicants for a CRE (HPCA) Authorisation shall....
(ii) hold a CPL or ATPL and a CRI(HPCA) rating for the appropriate type.
Is there yet such a thing as a CRI(HPCA) rating? Those who instruct on these HPCA aircraft currently hold a CRI + type rating or more commonly a FI + type rating, which was all that used to be required.
So under the new rules, will it be possible to qualify for JAR-ATPL issue or conversion from UK ATPL on a HPCA operated as MPA? Up till now, it wasn't!
