That's very helpful. Many thanks.
Would he need a valid class one medical in order to get the JAA CPL? (He currently only has a Class Two, but could get a Class One if required).
And to confirm, he will be able to renew the CAA ATPL indefinitely and hold this concurrently with a JAA CPL?
Finally, would the CAA ATPL retain the 'Grandfather' IMC rating, or should he hurry up and get the IMC as an addition to the JAA CPL?
I'm just trying to get him as 'bulletproof' paperwork wise, before the EASA changes.
Once again, thanks for your advice.
