Time Limit for IR After Passing ATP Written Exams
Hi there,
what is the time limit for taking the IR check-ride after passing the ATP theoretical exams? I finished my EASA ATP written exams in Oct of 2015 (did the conversion FAA to EASA). I somehow have something like 36 month in my mind and I believe it was an additional 24 month for the CPL. but I'm not quite sure. Would be nice if someone could refresh my memory. Thanks! |
36 Months get your CPL & IR.

Many thanks! OK, so it's 36 month from the "first sitting" to get the IR (and CPL) done. I thought once you got the IR you had some additional time left to get the CPL, but I might be mistaken...

successfully completes the theoretical knowledge examination. That means from the day when the last atpl exam was passed with minimum 75% |
I think they were talking about passing all the atpl theoretical knowledge examination within a period of 18 months counted from the end of the calendar month when the applicant first attempted an examination.
Please refer to https://www.easa.europa.eu/system/fi...u/Part-FCL.pdf page 26, FCL.025 (c)(1)(ii)(iii) |

It is 36 months after the passing of the exams.

Thanks to maximus610 and paco! That's what I recall as well, that the time limit starts when the candidate passes the last exam. I just wasn't sure about the time frame anymore (the 36 month).
At my flight school where I am currently doing my ATPL they informed the time limit started from your first exam sitting. I'm going to take their word for it. It's possible i'm wrong but that's what I was led to believe |
18 mths to do ALL exams - 36 months to do CPL and IR
