I have an UK ATPL(H) obtained nearly nine years ago. Never used the bloody thing though. Went overseas and flew fixed wing up to now. My questions are:
How do you get a licence back up alive and kicking? Is there a min number of hours before doing a flight test, or is it simply dependant on how quickly you get back into the groove?
What min requirements do operators like PAS have? Do they require an IR and recent type rating on a twin?
Do instructor ratings ever expire? (I've got one of those too and never used it! can't see any date on the licence for renewal though)
I'd be interested to hear from anyone else getting back into chopper flying after a long stint of FW flying.. how was it?
In humble anticipation I await your most learned replies.....
