JAR FCL 1.250 a) and Lasors F4.1 states under the heading 'Prerequisite
conditions for training' that
An applicant for the first type rating for a multi- pilot aeroplane type shall
have a valid multi-engine Instrument Rating (Aeroplanes)
Given the following hypothetical situation, what is your interpretation of the above, and does anybody have direct experience which could shed some light on my confusion?
I have recently been hired by an airline and scheduled to begin a type rating
course on February 10. I currently hold a CPL (frozen ATPL with 220 hrs total
time) with a valid single pilot multi-engine IR which lapses on February 12. My
question is:
Should I revalidate my single pilot IR before commencing training, ie. do i only
need to have a current IR when commencing training, or do I need to have a
current IR when training is complete (6 weeks later) and I am applying to have
the type endorsed on my licence.
Thanks for any insight!
