While the regs do not appear to rule out rotary checks I do know a Rotary Pilot who contacted the CAA to ask this particular question.
The answer was that the check had to be on a fixed wing aircraft hence rotary checks were not acceptable and he is now undertaking his biennials in a Gp A Machine.
Knowing how answers from the CAA vary dependant upon whom one talks to does anyone else have any experience of this?
