What you mean is "Is your UK-issued JAR-FCL PPL about to require re-issue?" Yes, the JAA con-trick pulled by the CAA means that every 5 years your JAR-FCL PPL must be re-issued (currently the fee is £59). In order for it to be re-issued, you must have a current JAA Class 1 or 2 medical certificate and a current Class or Type Rating.

The absurdity of the CAA trying to assert in their Regulatory Impact Assessment that the JAR-FCL PPL would not involve extra cost is thus truly exposed as the sham I declared it to be at the time. But the DETR refused to budge.....
