Sadly for him, time is no longer relevant. Thus presumably AAIB will seek to find it and determine currency.

And his 'qualifications' ... Do pilots carry their Licence with them? Are the details on a database somewhere? My long-expired PPL has a stamp for "Group A: Landplanes" (Ministry of Aviation!) and my Logbook just has "Piper Colt, Day only". I doubt any of that is electronically stored, dating as it does from 1963!

I'm just curious about the missing bits of the equation, as an onlooker.
