That is what I am planning to do. I am learning to fly in the UK. I am just confused on what I need to do with regards to making my CAA fATPL licence into a dual one. I have my CAA medical and EASA medical already done. I have also found the course I will do to get both CAA and EASA theory it is just I am confused as to what I need to do to get my dual licence when I start my instrument ratings.
I know I will be doing IR(R) followed by CBIR(SE) followed by ME conversion so I take it all I will need to do is a EASA SEIR and CPL test to freeze both?
