In a similar vane to Jannik, I am about to start a type rating. However my Multi-Engine Piston (MEP) rating has expired but my multi-engine instrument rating hasn't (IR-SPA-ME) - i.e. I did my multi-CPL before my IR.
From LASORS 2006 I see that I require:
a current and valid multi-engine Instrument Rating (Aeroplanes) [Section F4.1]
What's the difference between "current" and "valid"? From my interpretation I don't need a MEP rating but my ME-IR is current but not valid. Do I have to renew my MEP to start a type-rating on a jet?
Many thanks
