I'm sorry to have to ask but I have done as much research through threads and the CAA website as possible and due to extreme confusion need to clarify the following (I'll try to keep it simple)-
My licence has written on it
EUROPEAN UNION......FLIGHT CREW LICENCE.....Issued in accordance with Part-FCL.
I have just revalidated my expired SEP by proficiency check without medical as it had expired.
The test was successful thankfully and I was under the impression that I can now make a PMD and fly on the above licence. This prompted some discussion amongst other flyers who may not be aware of the recent changes and , being a cautions chap, I have spent hours this morning reading Flyer threads, CAA website and Irv's stuff.
It certainly seems I'm ok to PMD to fly PA28s on this licence (please correct me if I'm wrong) but I happened upon this text in the CAA guidance that I just can't get my head around.
-----------------------------------
Licences issued in accordance with the retained UK Part-FCL as amended by Aviation Safety (EU Exit) Amendment (SI 2021/10):
UK Part-FCL PPL to fly UK (G) registered Part 21 and non-Part 21 aircraft.UK Part-FCL LAPL to fly UK (G) registered Part 21 and non-Part 21 aircraft.
Valid for flying with the following operational conditions:
Holders of a UK Part-FCL PPL or LAPL licence can only make a pilot medical declaration to the at or less than 2000kg MTOM criteria as they are limited to the privileges of the LAPL.
The privileges of the UK Part-FCL LAPL are as follows:
a) Stated in FCL.105.A(a), act as Pilot-In-Command (‘PIC’) on single-engine piston aeroplanes-land or Touring Motor Gliders (‘TMG’) with a maximum certified take-off mass of 2,000 kg or less, carrying a maximum of 3 passengers, such that there are never more than 4 persons on board the aircraft
----------------------------------------
The troublesome sections are in bold (my bold).
Any guidance apart from "do more research" most welcome. Irv's PMD table seems to be quite clear on the matter but this section is puzzling me, especially "Holders of a UK Part-FCL PPL.......as they are limited to the privileges of the LAPL" Not in itself a problem for me, I just need to know what this means as I can find no reference to it anywhere else in any threads or guidance. And if I don't understand that, what else have I missed?
Kind regards,
Danny
