Who advised you of this?

Cheers, Sam.
Hi Sam,
Like everyone else our group has been fielding various opinions over the last year ranging from 'we just don't know' to 'we can't fly a D after 1st jan'.
We found CAA references to the two years grace for Easa license holders to fly the G in the UK, but no CAA reference to UK license holders flying non G....and I believe our maintenance company were of the opinion that as its stands we cannot fly the D after 1 Jan.....this coupled with a CAA inspector on a visit to same company saying that it would be very straightforward to switch our aircraft to the G (no engine overhaul required etc)....so we decided on that as the safest option, even if it proves later on to have been unnecessary.
