Hang on guys - this is getting confusing...
Read this checklist from "Flyer" magazine, but ....
EITHER an LPC (licensing proficiency check) with an EXAMINER (FE - not FI) - should take about an hour - stalling, steep turns, circuits, PFL.
OR - "experience", which requires...
12 hours flight in last 12 months of validity
at least 6 of which must be P1
12 take offs and landings
minimum 1 hour dual flight with a JAA rated instructor (FI) or any other type of flight test (IMC initial or revalidation, multi engine rating, whatever)
Must get signature in log book from the instructor, must get signature in licence from the examiner.
This form must be sent back to CAA - and if revalidated (or renewed) by flight test then
this form (which shows all the flight test requirements) must be kept by the examiner for three years (and then destroyed).
