Keeping an EASA fATPL current. Requirements and estimated costs.

[yap800]

Hi guys I have tried to find the official details on the CAA siteof what is required to keep the ratings current.
Went on CAA site. then /ratings/keeping-your-ratings-valid.
(It won't let me post URL's yet as I don't have enough posts)

However I cannot find the answers despite looking it is either not there or buried in a mush of writing.

As far as I know the fATPL consists of
1. CPL (Commercial pilot license)
2. MEP (multi engine piston rating)
3. MEIR (instrument rating done in a multi engine)
4. MCC (Multi crew co-operation)
5. 14 ATPL Theoretical exams

What is needed to keep each of these current how often etc?
Roughly how much does this cost for each item.
Please someone who knows all of the requirements write them all in one comment 1,2,3,4,5 so that everyone can see.
Also if you can post the URLS and decribe where it is in the text that would also be great (I am not yet allowed to post URLS)

I hope this helps a lot of people.

Firstly, you don't need an MEP rating, so there are only 4 requirements.

1. CPL - valid for life
3. MEIR - needs to be revalidated once per year with a flight test (SIM or aircraft on alternate years) You could also let it lapse for up to 7 years.
4. MCC - No expiry
5. ATPLs - valid for a rolling 7 years from the date of the last IR

So the minimum requirement to keep it all current would be an IR revalidation flight every year. It's all on and CAA website and in cap804
