Don't fret old chap,
Before you start your first MPA type rating, you must have held a valid multi IR within 5 years of the expiry of the said rating.
So, you have 5 years from november to get your first type rating.
Once you pass your type rating LST, you will be issued a MPA IR based on the type of aircraft you did your LST on. A little quirk is that you are allowed to exercise the IMC rating privilidges if your MPA IR is valid. Check lasors for more details.
