If you do not find the answers to most of this questions, you should first start to get the CAT A!
PS: one question mark is sufficient.

1- Yes you can get the B2 and you will need to provide 18 months worth of worksheets starting from the date when you had your B1.
2-There are two ways to become a C engineer, either an academic route or a certain amount years of experience on heavy base maintenance and. B1 OR 2 beforehand.
3- There is no where on earth where you can join straight as a certifying engineer without satisfying thier minimum experience requirements, you always get a start as a mechanic and then work your way up.
4- certifying engineer is the one who can sign a certificate of release to service upon accomplishing any kind of work on the aircraft which is within his scope of work, and that is the A1or B1 or B2 or C.
By the way 1 year theory is not enough for the course to be deemed an approved course, and so is 1 year ojt for the B1 license.

A fully-approved B1.1 Basic Training course would normally have a minimum of 1200 hours classroom work (Modules), 800 hours Practical Training and 400 Hours OJT. Practical Training is carried out by the Part 147 MTO in its approved workshops, which must include a real (non-flying) aircraft for training on, and the OJT must be carried out in a Part 145 MRO under the supervision of the Part 145 and the general control of the Part 147 MTO responsible for the entire course.

If you want to add a B2 to a B1.1 licence you will have to pass additional Modules, as well as work experience etc, but I can't remember what they are. Module 13 springs to mind, but there may be more. EU 1321/2014 Part 66 Appendix 1 tells all.

If you can find one, you can do a B2 Basic Training course, instead of a B1.1 course. Having only a B2 is not a good career move, these days. You may find a combined B1.1/B2 Basic training course but I'm not sure about that.

Don't forget that if and when you complete a Basic Training course, you get a Basic Training certificate, not a licence. You can apply for that only after completing 2 years work experience, well-documented and relevant, in a Part 145 environment. You have to find the job that will give you that experience.

I've just had a discussion with the CAA and I can't find any reference to this 'restriction' at all!

The Matrix just mentions experience levels over one year - with no time limit between Licence types

Your advice please

I cannot find it in the site now however when you get to apply you will be asked to provide 18 months gap, you cannot apply for 2 categories at the same time.

Thanks FB,
I'm calling the CAA today to get this clarified - I have two distinctly different opinions from within the CAA's own ELD??

Well, they took out any argument about that restriction as soon as I mentioned it! Just waived the two years they mentioned in their e-mail (66.A.30(a) was quoted) and dumped it without a blink.

FYI - There is nowhere in the Part 66 regulation (as currently amended) that states a minimum time between AML applications. This is just the UK CAA making up their own rules!

Cool

In all honesty do you think by just completing your B1 in record time makes you a worthy engineer ? You lot from over there have a false idea
What it really takes to be come a well trained B1 engineer. No company will
issue a CRS to you with that amount of experience.
