Directions to Renewing your RTR(P) For those having trouble
 

I successfully renewed my RTR(P) (Converted from Transport Canada RT). I wasn't given 20 years to live with the RT but 5:ugh:. You will be lucky if you do.

I spent a lot of time looking for the right form for RTR(P) renewal on the internet and I couldn't find one that easy. As you know, most government websites are the worst in their kind, isn't complicated but they're highly highly disorganized #(*#$(#&#$!!!! Blah blah blah...

Anyway, below is the link to the form (COP23). If the download doesn't work, let me know and I'll find another place to put it.

Download COP23.pdf for free on uploading.com

Directions:
1. Complete the form. You only need to send 2 pages of the form (unless you have a flying job). (The rest is just instructions written by them that is pretty jumbled up and confusing)
Most is self explanatory but here's what you should know of
2. On page 1, For 'Particulars of Certificate(s) of *Competency/Proficiency held by the applicant', you need to write the details of your Indian and Foreign RT
3. Page 2 is where YOU and the Gazetted officer needs to sign.

You need the following: Checklist:
1. Completed form
2. 3 or 4 recent passport sized Photographs

ATTESTED COPIES OF:

3. Indian RT
4. Foreign RT
5. Foreign CPL
6. DGCA CPL
7. Logbook pages that shows 30 hours in the last 3 years.
8. Current Foreign Medical (Hmmm, I'm really not sure if this is a requirement, I get different answers from people but I still sent mine to save myself from hassles)

9. A DD of Rs. 5,000
HAS TO BE from the State Bank Of India, drawn in the name of
"PAO (HQ), DOT, New Delhi" and Payable at "New Delhi"
Branch Code: 7687

Send all the above to:
The Assistant Wireless
Adviser to the Govt. of India, Wireless Planning and Coordination Wing, COP Section,
Department of Telecom, 619, Sanchar Bhawan, 20, Ashoka Road, New Delhi-110001.

That's about it.

I got mine in 13 working days flat!

Thanks brother!! I'm sure this information will come in handy to many, including myself in a couple of months. My foreign RT is from UK, I wonder if that changes anything?

@Capt. Morrgan, I'm not sure with the UK RT, but I know it classifies as RTR(C)
C=Converted. I don't think you have to do a lot when it comes to renewal but if it's your first time application and conversion, you'll have to write the PART-1 exam and... oh wish I knew.

These posts should help you.

@pier39lab

great piece of information!!

Had been looking for the COP-23 form since quite sometime.

One question, the form says DD of Rs 50.00 whereas you mention DD of Rs 5000.00 which is for 20years but you only got a 5 year extension. Did you get a refund or something?

@Dragster, the form simply lies, it's a few years old and not updated. It took me a lot of searching for the form and took me seconds to edit it and make it into a PDF and post it here. I don't know why WPC doesn't do it in years!
Needless to say, I got no refund, they're happy with my 5,000/-

my RTR(C) is expiring in sept but my 30 hours gonna get lapsed in 1 month time, so can i send my application now for the renewal with 5K draft? will they renew it now? some says you can only send application 3 months before expiring. any info?

@Sonsal. You can renew your RT only within 3 months of it expiring (Not before that) If you don't have the 30 hours in 3 years, you'll have to face those dreaded RT exams.

great job vik ;)

really helpful post thanks a ton man

Faa Cpl & Uk Rt
 

My RTR is expiring as well. Though i meet hte clause of 30 hours in the last 3 years, will it be an issue if i have an FAA CPL and a UK RT?

Any kind of info would really help.

Thanks:ok:

@Retro
 

Im also in the same situation like you (FAA cpl & UK rt)... have the 30 hrs... But Im pretty sure the renewal of the rtr(c) works the same way... I still have another month before I fall within the three month bracket of renewing it... Anyways just wanted to know if you have any further info???

@Rtero and Flying Demon: You guys should try renewing it with FAA and UK RT, send them all that I've mentioned above, if it doesn't work that way, they'll reply via post with clear instructions. That's one way of getting to know. I think you should try, it won't take too long for their response in any case.

@pier39lab: I just have a quick question can 30 hrs of RT monitoring experience in the last 3 months substitute the 30 hrs of flying in last 3yrs for the renewal of the rtr???

@flying demon - Mostly NOT for Pilots. Ground monitoring is likely requirement for AME's and other ground operators. Read the COP-23 form.

Hi
I am in delhi guys, what is the address of the building?
I was thinking of going and submitting the application myself.
Thanks a lot

I don't really know my way around delhi, if you could please give me a easy to understand route.

Cheers'

Take a metro from CP (Rajiv Chowk) towards Central Secretariat.

Get down one stop before Central Secretariat and next door is Sanchar Bhavan.

Thanks bro.

another query
 

Hi i have current Canadian CPL and Canadian RT and current Canadian medical , but my RTR (P) is abt to lapse and i also dont have 30hrs for flying in last 3 years , can i apply for Fresh RTR (P) ...

As i have Canadian CPL and Canadian RT and current Canadian medical , still i have to pass exam to get the Indian RT ?

NO TXT THNX

I'm not sure but from what I hear, you have to pass the Part 1 if you don't have the hours in 3 years. Don't quote me on that but call WPC to find out and let us know what they say.

Good question, I got a different number written on my renewed RTR. I don't think you gotta do anything with the FRTOL.

SeniorEagle: You're welcome! I'm happy the guidelines have helped a few
