PPL revalidation.
Hi folks, it's been a few years since i posted here...
i'm a bit out of touch with current legislation and your help would be hugely appreciated.
I qualified for a CAA PPL with RT back in 1999, from Ormond Beach in Florida. It is a UK licence. In 2001 I had it revalidated as i had the necessary hours completed. However I allowed it to lapse in 2003.
My problem is that I'm living in Ireland not the UK, and as far as I know, all I need to do is to take a few hours of re-climatisation and a check flight, but where can I do this? Can a JAR certified instructor sign my licence? Do I have to go all the way back to Florida or to the UK to get between four and ten hours of flying?
thanking you in advance,
Sean.
