Hi 2close
No not quite.
Your CofA issued in May 2007 would have been for 1 year, to May 2008, and would have just been as EASA Standard CofA.
In May 2008 the CofA will need renewing again using the normal process, but the CAA will issue a New CofA and an ARC.
In May 2009 your CAMO will need to carry out a full ARC renewal, as they did not issue the original ARC.
If you stay with the same CAMO they will revalidate the ARC in May 2010 and 2011.
In 2012 you will need a full ARC issue.
If at any point post May 2009 you were to change CAMO’s during the year, at the next ARC review you would new a full ARC issue rather than just a revalidation.
