Gosh , nearly, got my head around it all ,but it,s changed again.

With the new self cert system,

i can now use my night and imc,on my uk ppl?? i think?

but since i only have a ssea on a UK. P.P.L. A(becuase of the self med dec) do i need to renew mt sep, before renewing these ratings,

can i now renew my sep without a class 2, not previously allowed.

if i can fly sep, without the need for a class 2,could i renew my FI for use on non EASA aircraft, with a self cert and SEP/SSEA?

Non-EASA aircraft – to fly non-EASA aircraft (for example amateur built or microlight aircraft) you can use the same medical certificates that you would for EASA aircraft. Alternatively you can declare your medical fitness to the CAA (subject to certain conditions) by making a Pilot Medical Declaration. This Declaration is will only be valid for non-EASA aircraft and for use within UK airspace.

Self-declaring your medical fitness using the Pilot Medical Declaration

A medical declaration (from 25 August 2016) is an affirmation of your medical 'fitness to fly' and may be used to exercise the privileges of a:

EU Part-FCL Private Pilot Licence (PPL):
National PPL (NPPL);
UK PPL; and
A UK Commercial Pilot Licence (Balloons), non-public transport operations only.
It is valid for flying with up to three passengers on board and in aircraft up to 5700 kg MTOW. The privileges of an Instrument Meteorological Conditions (IMC) or Night Rating (assuming colour safety has previously been checked by an AME) may be exercised on non-EASA aircraft, but not a full Instrument Rating (IR). Subject to certain exemptions from the EASA Aircrew Regulation, the declaration is only valid for non-EASA aircraft and is not automatically valid outside of the UK since it is not an internationally-recognised medical standard, unless permission has been granted from the foreign state you are flying in.

The standard you must meet for the medical declaration is the DVLA Group 1 Ordinary Driving Licence (ODL) and you must not suffer or have suffered from a list of specified 'medical conditions'.

thanks for the reply, got all that ,I think is a little more complex, there is now some weight division as to which bit you sign,


below 2000kg or 2000 up to 5700


but it was specific to the imc and FI on non easa,


got it sorted now




thanks any how
