Certificate of Revalidation
Certificate of Revalidation replaced Certificate of Experience and is valid
for 24 months.
To obtain a
certificate of revalidation, you must have met the following requirements:
In the twelve months prior to the expiry of the existing
certificate you must have flown 12 hours in piston singles or touring motor
gliders, of which 6 hours must be as pilot in command, made twelve take offs
and landings and have completed a flight of at least one hour with an
instructor which must be countersigned in your log book. Any other proficiency
check or skill test for a class or type rating can replace this flight. An IMC
test or renewal or the annual proficiency check required for a multi rated
pilot will suffice (even though they may not have been undertaken on a single
engined aircraft). If a pilot cannot meet these requirements, a proficiency
check must be undertaken with an examiner in the 3 months prior to expiry. If
your certificate of revalidation has lapsed, a skills test with an examiner is
required.
Note: all time scales are by reference to the expiry date
of the existing certificate, not the date of signing of the new certificate.
