So - situation is I have a JAR PPL(A) that expired in 2012, with an obviously dead SEP rating.
So , I'll be soon taking the LPC for my rating renewal on a dead JAR... so..
Does it make any sense to get my licence changed to a 'EASA" (I know it's not technically an EASA any more, but you know what I mean..) before, or get the licence and the rating done at the same time - BECAUSE I want to fly myself and my wife at the end of the month.
I know that for initial licence issue, I could fly solo with permission from my instructor, does the same rule apply to a renewal of a rating?
I know I can't fly with a dead licence, but could I fly with passengers with a changed licence and having passed the LPC, or is the rating not valid until I have the piece of paper with the rating on?
And has there been any clue as to when the CAA desk at gatwick will reopen?
thanks in advance
Pete
