Minimum requirement is 2 hrs per year, 1 hr of which can be the LPC. LPC needs to be taken within the 3 months preceeding current expiry date.. .My local airfield require a check flight if I've not flown within the preceeding 28 days. From what I can understand many operators take a similar view. Theres also the requirement regarding 3 circuits within so many days for carriage of passengers. Sorry, can't remember the days re the passengers but its been a long shift and its the early hours. Will look it up tomorrow.. .As a low hours PPL(H)I try to fly atleast once a month just to get as much regular practice as pennies allow. Personally I wouldn't want to not fly for six months and then hop in and away. <img src="smile.gif" border="0">
