Hi all,
Thinking of doing my IMC rating hopefully sometime soon and was looking to clarify whether its recognised outside the U.K. Looking at the JARS (again) :eek: :eek: I found this...
Authorisations/Ratings for special purposes associated with a licence( e.g. IMC flying, towing,aerobatics, dropping of parachutists, etc) may be established by the Authority in accordance with the requirements of that JAA Member State for use solely within that Member State's airspace. The use of such an authorisation/rating in another JAA Member State's airspace requires the prior agreement of the State(s) visited, except where a bilateral agreement exists.
To my mind this would seem to suggest that as long as other members recognise the IMC, its valid in those countries. The question is, are there any JAA states which recognise the UK IMC rating?????
