What would be required to resurrect my license and get myself a shiny new type rating stamp in terms of minimum flying hours, exams etc?
Is it the non expiring 'brown card in plastic wallet' type of the '70s/early '80s or more recent the book type which they resurrected?
If it's the non expiring type, you just need to fly with an instructor until they are happy to send you solo; no exams.
