You won't need to sit the exams again, but you will have to now do either an LST or an LPC before you can apply for the licence. These serve as an 'ATPL Skills Test'.
It's not automatic on reaching the 1500 hours. . . .

You can't apply any more for a UK CAA ATPL.
It has to be a JAR ATPL and you will loose your IMC rights when you do so.
Its quite striaght forward.
After you have the required hours.
Then sit a LPC and pass it.
Fill out the form and try and invent numbers for some of the requirments because you have never logged Instrument time etc.
Pay some money
Send off your log books and form and 3 weeks later a green book turns up.

The LPC is the annual check you do to renew your IR and type rating. Once you have passed your next LPC, fill in the application form available on the CAA website (plus the payment form and a copy of the LPC pass form signed by your company), include £210 and send all that off to the CAA with your logbooks and any non UK licences you have. Also, if you don't have your PIC u/s time countersigned in your logbook, you will need to submit a letter from your employer (on company headed notepaper and signed) confirming your PIC u/s time etc.
If you meet all the CAA requirements they will issue the licence.
Check out LASORS for further information....

Its the test when the exminer signs your rating page afterwards.
In the UK it is a paper work exercise once you have the required numbers in your log book. You don't even need to tell the TRE that you are going to use the check for the issue of the ATPL.
If you speak to other JAR state ATPL's some of them have to do a skills test in the LHS (sweden for example).
Just stick with LASOR's, the only time I have heard of problems is when the person is bang on the minimum hours. If you have an excess on all the requirments its a very simple but expensive exercise.

Unfreezing my ATPL on CJ2 ?
Am totally lost with CAA / JAA requirements regarding the unfreeze of my ATPL.
Am sure there are some reg experts among you .
So below is my case :
Got my CAA CPL/IR (Frozen ATPL) issued in May 2000
Got it converted in a JAA CPL/IR in September 2001
Have 2400 Total time
200 at Night
350 on Jet (CJ1 & CJ2 )
30 on Multicrew ops in the CJ2
CJ2 (C525A )is singlecrew certified by Cessna , but multipilot if operated under AOC (JAR req )
CJ2 MTOW is 12 375 Lbs
So basically, I would like to know if my multicrew time on the CJ2 will count toward my ATPL issue.
Is a JAR25 Type rating required regardless of experience ?
Is a checkride required (in my memory, no checkride, hence the point getting a frozen ATPL ) ?
I know this question is coming on a regular basis, but I would like to make sure in which case am falling to get the F-ATPL
Many thanks indeed.
