Night qualification - currency
Is there any requirement, according to UK/JAR regulations, to maintain any kind of night currency (other than 1 of the 3 landings in the previous 90 days being at night if carrying pax)?
The reason I ask is because I wasn't aware of any... as far as I knew, once you get your night qualification, it's good for as long as your license is valid. But last weekend I was told that you need to have completed 5 take-offs and landings to a full stop, at night, within the previous 12 months, for your night qualification to remain valid. Is this true? Completely made up? Or some mixed up version based on rules which died years ago? (Personally, I think the latter is most likely...)
Thanks,
FFF
