No mention of a sign-off is made.
Anyone have a view as to whether I actually have a valid licence?
Thanks.
Hi Neilix. Welcome to PPRune.
I'm afraid you have fallen for an all too popular misconception.
The minimum experience requirements for Revalidation by Experience of an SEP Class Rating are just the minimum you need to have in your logbook to enable you to revalidate the rating without a Flight Test.
Once you have completed the minimum requirements, an Authorised Person must endorse your licence to extend the validity of your SEP Class Rating for a further 2 years. Although other EASA National Authorities require you to send it to them for endosement, for UK issued EASA Licences, the UK CAA have authorised UK Flight Examiners to do this on their behalf.
As BEagle says, even if you met the minimum requirements before the expiry date of the Rating, it cannot be endorsed retrospectively and your SEP Class Rating has been invalid since 30th June 2014.
Your SEP Class Rating must now be 'Renewed' rather than 'Revalidated'.
To Renew, you must visit an ATO/RF (Flying School) and have the Head of Training there assess what, if any, training you will require to enable you to take the Flight Test (Proficiency Check). Once you have completed any required training, you will be given a Course Completion Certificate (CCC) which you will need to present to the Examiner before taking the Proficiency Check.
On sucessful completion of the Proficiency Check, The Examiner will Endorse your Licence to renew your SEP Class Rating from the date of the Test, for another 2 years.
