Quick question:
I've got a Swedish JAA commercial single engine certificate that expires the end of November 2008. What happens if I wait a few months with the PC? Can I still do a PC after it has expired or do I have to conduct a new skilltest?

Did you even look in JAR FCL 1? I would expect you did as you are a Commercial pilot.

A SEP (Land) and/or TMG rating may be revalidated by passing a Proficiency Check (LPC) with a JAR authorised Flight Examiner (FE(A)) or Class Rating Examiner (CRE(A)). If completed within the three months preceding the expiry date of the rating(s), no loss of rating validity will be incurred - the new rating expiry date will be calculated from the preceding rating expiry date, not from the date of the Proficiency Check,

If your referring to revalidation by experience the flight of at least one hour with a JAA Authorised instructor must be completed before your rating expires otherwise the skills test will be required
