Revalidation
Stik
If it doesn't involve any flying, it could be done today !
Presumably you've done your instructional hour.
Doubtless there will be a stampede of usual volunteers...
It's too far for me.

To answer the question posed (and assuming hours + instructor flight requirement met) - get the signature from 3 months before to the date of the expiry (and not a day after)

Revalidation, Revalidation, Revalidation!
I took myself outside for a bit of a talking-to, I've come back with bruises and minor cuts. I stand suitably corrected:

My question really wasn't as carefully worded as it should have been. I have flown in excess of 150 hours in the preceeding 22 months, 55 or so in the past 12 months.
I need to fly an hour with an instructor - how soon can I schedule that in advance of my mid March expiration of my validation?

Hello
I recently queried all this revalidation process with one of the NPPL top dogs, mainly the requirement that the 1 hr with an instructor had to be in the last 12mths.
I was forwarded the latest requirements (which were the same as those I found on the NPPL site)
and nowhere did it say it had to be in the last 12 mths. I had done 5 hrs tailwheel conversion in the first year, and 45mins wobbly prop in the second.
They agreed that was in order. I now read many bits of advice stating it has to be in the last year.
Can someone enlighten me further before I book another session?
Thanks

Thank you everyone!
I have a couple of friendly LAA coaches locally. I just wanted to know when was the right time before I called them.
At the DA Seminar this year, I am convinced that Perfect Pete told me that he'd succeeded John Cooke - but my memory may not be what it was!
Thanks

Pete Davis succeeded Ray Newall. I can confirm bose-x is a coach, instructor, and examiner.
LASORS Section F 1.4 has the answer.

For a JAA licence or a UK licence with JAA rating, the flight with an instructor has to be a minimum of a 1 hour flight (singular) and in the last 12 months of the 24.
