Never really seen the point of a high end corporate jet jockey
having to front his local flying school to do his mandatory three
circuits in a C150 because their out of Australian night currency.
Easy for the mainlines I guess "Bloggs shoot down to the sim and do three night circuits will you".
For a GA operator of a high end global thats a very expensive exercise in the aircraft.
Said corporate jet jockey is authorised to perform operations under the NVFR so long as his MECIR renewal is current.
CAsA sez so. Why go renew your NVFR currency when your CIR authorises it anyway unless you plan on letting your CIR lapse?
