Helicopter FI(R) under EASA? Does it exist?

[GAZELLE007]

Can't find any mention of removal of restriction or need for supervision once a FI certificate has been granted under EASA. Does this mean the old JAR FCL2 supervision period no longer pertains to EASA?

From CAP 804, see below- same as now, 100 hrs, 25 solos


FCL.910.FI FI – Restricted privileges
