Here's a licence renewal / rating attachment / licence availability dilemma I have, loosely based around the IMC.
My situation is;
Currently hold a JAR-FCL PPL
2 yr revalidation by experience due 16 May, all hours achieved so will get the certificate signed off at the weekend.
I'm taking the IMC Flight Test on Saturday (24th) so should be in a position to have this rating added then.
5 Year Renewal required by 7 June.
Medical Expires end March (booked medical for 28th).
I Must be in posession of my licence by 13 April to take to US for recreational flying (Flight Review due as well, it never rains but it pours)
Also considering getting a night qualification between 29 March & 13 April.
Given the transition to EASA licencing on 8th April, anyone got any suggestions (gratefully received) on when to apply for renewal or have the IMCr added & whether or not banging in the NQ overcomplicates the timing issues?
Answers on a post card would be great - I'm tempted to just have the IMCr added pronto (although I think I need my licence for the medical so will have to check that point as it would leave very little time to have the rating added & licence back by 13 April)
