Thanks for the positive feedback everybody.
Highfinal – You are absolutely correct that Section G 3.3 indicates that there are 14 written exams.
However, if you flick to the section on JAR-FCL Theoretical Knowledge Examination Requirements, Section J 1.2 it reads (I've added the numbers and the emphasis):
*Currently the Helicopter Learning objectives have not been formalised by the JAA, and the Central Question Bank contains insufficient questions both in number and topic distribution in some subjects. Consequently, the CAA has decided not to proceed with the introduction of the JAR-FCL 2 examinations as previously intended. Until such time as the JAR-FCL helicopter examinations are introduced, the CAA have authorised interim arrangements using a combination of equivalent JAR-FCL aeroplane and JAR-FCL helicopter examinations as detailed below:
Instead of sitting the normal range of ATPL(H) as detailed previously, candidates may sit the following combination of JAR-FCL ATPL(H) and ATPL(A) papers. These interim arrangements for helicopter examinations will continue until further notice:-
ATPL(H) Papers
1. Airframes/Systems (subject to an agreement with the CAA), FTOs may substitute the ATPL(A) paper for this subject.
2. Principles of Flight (H)
ATPL(A) Papers
3. Air Law
4. Instruments/electronics
5. Mass and Balance
6. Flight Planning and Monitoring
7. Human Performance & Limitations
8. Meteorology
9. General Navigation
10. Radio Navigation
11. Operational Procedures
12. VFR Communications
13. IFR Communications
Candidates taking the exams under the interim arrangements should check their booking confirmation for exam start and finish times as they may differ from above.
(It is Performance that is missing)
I hope that clears up any confusion
