JAR-FCL v EASA Part-FCL "Sight of surface" Restriction
As I understand it, newly issued PPL's under EASA Part-FCL no longer have the ridiculous 'In sight of the surface' restriction which JAR FCL did.
If all JAR licences effectively became Part-FCL on 08 April 2012 does that mean that the restriction stated within the licence no longer applies? Or, does one have to wait until the JAR licence is physically changed at its expiry?
I'm sure the restriction still applies but thought to ask.

What if you're flying a G-reg Annex-II (non-EASA) aircraft?
My gut feeling is that if you do so on a national (non-JAR) UK PPL, the restriction would still be in force, whereas if you do so on a JAR-FCL (now EASA) PPL, there is no such restriction anymore.

So, it remains in force on current JAR-FCL licences or does that refer to the ancient UK licences?
