IR Validity
Paul Chocks,
I believe it is the 6 yr option ie 5yrs from having had a Mil Green rating. Think actually that pans out to be 6yrs and 1 month from the date of the last rating assuming mil ratings are still valid for 13 months?
It was the position I was in when I left the Mil having got my ATPL inc IR yrs before jumping. I actually started the civvie OCU equivelant with a copy of LASORs and a letter from the CAA detailing the currency issues. The civvie company required a valid IR as a mandatory pre-employment tick and were happy with the paperwork trail I had.
Good luck.
