Licence Revalidation
I didn´t really know where to put this...
I have a JAR-FCL frozen ATPL with the following ratings: SEpiston land-PIC MEpiston land-PIC/IR They are valid until the end of November 2013. Since I don´t know if I will be sitting in a cockpit, annoying any captain I wanted to ask if anybody knows what I actually have to do to revalidate them and when. |
Hi Aero,
Wether you want to revalidate the ratings is up to you. However, I have found that a valid ME rating is often one of the requirements for airliners. Thats why I kept mine valid. All I did was a check ride with an examinor from my local flight club. If we take a look at JAR FCL 1.245 it says JAR–FCL 1.245 Type and class ratings – Validity, revalidation and renewal (a) Type ratings and multi-engine class ratings, aeroplane – Validity. Type ratings and multi-engine class ratings for aeroplanes are valid for one year from the date of issue, or the date of expiry if revalidated within the validity period. (b) Type ratings and multi-engine class ratings, aeroplane – Revalidation. For revalidation of type ratings and multi-engine class ratings, aeroplane, the applicant shall complete: (1) a proficiency check in accordance with Appendix 1 to JAR–FCL 1.240 in the relevant type or class of aeroplane within the three months immediately preceding the expiry date of the rating; and (2) at least ten route sectors as pilot of the relevant type or class of aeroplane, or one route sector as pilot of the relevant type or class of aeroplane or flight simulator flown with an examiner during the period of validity of the rating. (3) The revalidation of an IR(A), if held, should be combined with the type/class rating proficiency check in accordance with Appendix 1 to JAR–FCL 1.240 & 1.295. (c) Single-pilot single-engine class ratings – Validity and Revalidation. Single-pilot singleengine class ratings are valid for two years from the date of issue, or the date of expiry if revalidated within the validity period. (1) All single-engine piston aeroplane class ratings (land) and all touring motor glider’s ratings – Revalidation. For revalidation of single-pilot single-engine piston aeroplane (land) class ratings and/or touring motor glider class ratings the applicant shall: (i) within the three months preceding the expiry date of the rating, pass a proficiency check in accordance with Appendix 1 and 3 to JAR-FCL 1.240 or Appendix 1 and 2 to JAR-FCL 1.210 with an authorised examiner in the relevant class; or (ii) within the 12 months preceding the expiry of the rating complete 12 hours flight time in a single engine piston aeroplane or touring motor glider including: (A) 6 hours of pilot-incommand time; (B) 12 take-offs and 12 landings; and (C) a training flight of at least one hour’s duration with a FI(A) or CRI(A). This flight may be replaced by any other proficiency check or skill test. (iii) When the applicant holds both a single-engine piston aeroplane (land) class rating and a touring motor glider rating, he may complete the requirements in (i) above in either class or in (ii) above in either class or a mixture of the classes, and achieve a revalidation of both ratings. Quite a bit to read trough it all, but its the most complete answer I can give you :cool: Cheers,- |
Presuming what you actually hold is an EASA CPL with SEP & MEP Ratings with an Single Pilot MEIR, ATPL Theory passes and an MCC?
What you need to do is get a copy of Part FCL from the Easa website / google it and read about what it takes to revalidate and/or renew your own ratings. A working knowledge of the legal documents which regulate your profession is important. And i cant say from exp but sitting in a cockpit annoying the captain with these kind of questions would probably not be well received. I'll leave it to more experienced people than myself to comment. Happy reading! |
Thx guys, that helped a lot!
