How does one renew the licence then?
Is it a paperwork exercise providing you have a valid IR?
What if your IR has lapsed? (Ground Tour scenario)
Or do you need to keep a valid Class rating with an annual skill check rather than an IR to enable auto-renewal??
What happens if your IR and class rating lapses (i.e no flying for in excess of a year)?
(Assuming Class I medical held and renewed every year).
Thanks in advance
