Differences training required?
Slightly unusually, I have a JAA PPL with the skills test done in a wobbly prop tailwheel. That was done as a conversion based on having an ICAO (australian) PPL with CSU and tailwheel endorsements, and a bunch of time on nose and tailwheels.
So, if I want to fly a nosewheel in JAA land, do I need differences training?
I'm assuming I don't need differences 'signed off' for tailwheel/CSU as they're what I got the PPL on - i.e. not a difference..
Lasors just has me puzzled!

Thanks for the reply, looks like I've resolved the question externally. However for the record, JAR-FCL 1.235(c) doesn't apply for SEP, nor does it address the implicit assumption that one has gained ones license on a nosewheel, fixed prop a/c. Why do I always have to be different...
I don't think you are all that different.....I make sure to do a couple of hours a year on the club's robins so as not to be moithered. Mind, as my cub is annexe II, it looks like I am going to have to make that twelve hours in future, on top of the 100 or so in the cub

JAR-FCL 1.235(c) does apply to SEP - read it
(c) Variants. If the variant has not been flown within a period of 2 years following the differences training, further differences training
or a proficiency check in that variant will be required except for types or variants within the SEP class rating.

What's more, that paragraph does not state that if you haven't flown a variant for two years, you will need to repeat differences training.
