JAR EC130 Type Rating
 

Any ideas on where I can go for an JAR EC130 Type rating? Eurocopter are currently quoting a ridiculous figure so looking for other options. Thanks

notar,

Edited to add: The CAA site is now back up. There is only 1 EC130 on the G reg: G-ECBO. You should be able to contact the owner/operator via their contact details and they might be able to help. (From a Google search, G-ECBO would appear to based in the Midlands, maybe around The Belfry.)

Failing that, your next best option, I guess, would be in Ireland somewhere. Otherwise, how's your French? ;)

Hi, You could go to Heli Holland, there based at Lelystad Airport.

And I'd bet my house on them speaking English! Good idea, Thomas. :ok:

Premier Helicopters at weston airfield in Dublin Ireland do 130 ratings i believe..

If you can't take a joke, ASV, I suggest that you try using Google before asking daft questions... :ugh:

But, if you're really good, here's the answer: Joint Aviation Requirement

Bravo73.....!!!!!!!! :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

ASV..

JAA is Joint Aviation Authorities..

JAR is Joint Aviation Requirments..

And im gona go open my JAR of coffee :E

I stand corrected. :O How about a 'jar of coffee'? :E





PS Try having a very good look at my post #11. ;)

ok what is a JAR Type rating ??? :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::}

ASV..

I take it you fly in the states?

From what's been posted so far, it can be gleaned that it would be a Joint Aviation Requirement Type Rating required to fly in places where aviation is regulated by Joint Aviation Authorities.

The missing pieces of information are:-

1. Type Rating = a rating to fly a particular type of aircraft.
2. JAA = Europe and affiliated regions.

rating = Junior officer.
Fly = small insect
type= act of using a typewriter

still makes no sense to me :O

still makes no sense to me 2 !!! :ugh::ugh::ugh:

widgeon, it's obvious... :rolleyes:

It means that only junior officers that can properly undertake secretarial work are allowed to be an insect in certain aircraft.
