Oooo, thanks guys. I'll get a new FAA one for $2 then. I never did like that silly bit of card...though it let me fly in the US so what the hell.
As for JAR licences, I just object to the fact that they have to be renewed. I'd far rather pay around £200 for something I've got for life, than pay a bit less and have to remember yet another date...date of next medical, next f/w biannual check, next rotary annual LPC, R44 rating (forgot and expired), night rating (never did any night flying and it expired)...and ...oh yes, don't let that licence expire!!!!
There's just too much to remember.
Hmm, maybe we should start a new thread on this.
