Sleep walking towards April 2014
My understanding is that, further to legislation adopted in 2011, pilots require both the relevant FAA and EASA licences to fly private, N registered, Europe based aircraft.
Most European countries exercised a derogation that effectively postponed this to April 2014.
Apparently this has already taken effect where commercial operations are concerned, so my question is why are people behaving as if this isn’t going to happen?
Is there a chance of a last minute ‘deal’ to keep all the N registered bizjets flying?
Does migrating onto the IOM register, or any other, improve the outlook?
Is there a belief that the rule is not going to be enforced? Where does that leave you with regard to insurance?
Are all the N reg Cirrus pilots without EASA IRs going to be limited to VFR overnight?
If you have a type rating on the FAA licence do you require it on the EASA licence?
Any thoughts much appreciated.
