I sent in the docs via courier yesterday for an ATPL unfreeze, they should be in there tomorrow. I have a UK medical conducted at the CAA itself, printed logbook signed on all pages, a certification from my employer confirming my hours, the skills test form and the payment form which I sent (I did not send a copy of my medical as they surely must have it there). I was told by a phone operator it should take around four weeks to get it.

Both the examiner was an English TRE and the simulator was in LGW (Oxford). On paper this should be really straight forward for them, yet somehow I'm slightly anxious they will bounce the application and I'll be stuffed. Between EASA, UK specific regulation, and all the other flippin' regulations it's very hard for me to keep track. Especially as I did the skills test under the old jar regulations and not under the new EASA requirements, though I was assured I would get an EASA ATPL.

Anybody any real-world estimates? License expires 28/02. Please advise. :P
