Q1. Although reluctant, I guess they still have a duty to honour article 153?
Q2. The FI rating is currently on the back of my Part-FCL licence, it just says “FI”. On the scan of my old JAR licence, it says “FI(A)” and “SP SE (A) Only in accordance with JAR-FCL 1.330/No Aerobatics/No Applied Instrument/No Night”. Does that mean it was un-restricted?
Q3. This is good to hear, thank you for the info.
