Conversion of an EASA flight crew licence to a UK part equivalent licence
 
Sorry if this has already been posted but I’ve just seen this from the CAA: https://bit.ly/33LpvzX
Looks like you need to convert your EASA licence to a UK licence by the end of this year plus you need a valid medical to do so.
The old EASA PPL and CPL were valid for life but I’m not sure if this is the case when you go back to a UK one.

That is assuming your old EASA licence was issued by someone other than the UK. If yours was issued by the UK you would not need to do this.

The UK licence is valid for life. It’s a Part FCL licence. If you previously held a UK licence it’s easier, if not you need a UK initial medical. If the EASA licence was UK issued then it has just morphed into a UK National Part FCL licence.

Why, in the name of all that is holy, can it not be called a Pilots Licence FFS!

Hasn't this been covered in Professional Pilot Training (includes ground studies) and other threads on here?

Thanks for the replies everyone.
I converted my UK CAA JAA FCL and UK CAA UK PPL to a UK CAA EU FCL inc Part-FCL (CPL & PPL listed in Section II) in 2013 as per the CAAs direction. I just wanted to make sure I did not need to convert it back again (plus I wanted to avoid paying for a medical just for the sake of it).
