Global Type Rating Currency / Recency Standards
Having just started flying N reg aircraft again, I have just been made aware of something that I didn't know. Part 61.57 states that a sim session must be done every 6 months. All my other flying on foreign licenses, it is one year. I was in a rather heated discussion with an FAA instructor who claims that it is 6 months world wide.
Is this the case? What is the 'standard' For example under EASA the other heavyweight regulatory authority?
thanks!
