Really don't let the IR lapse by 7 years or more or you'll have to take all the lovely exams.
BEags, I have just renewed my ATPL after just under 5 years with a SEP rating/Class 1 medical. Are you saying that if I don't get another IR within the next 2 years, despite my renewed license stating that it runs out in 2012, I will need to do the lot again!
I'm sorry if that is a numpty question, but dementia does seem to loom on my personal horizon...
TIA...
