The type rating training course shall include the mandatory training elements for the relevant type as defined in the operational suitability data established in accordance with Part-21.

Confirmation of Military Experience for Military Experience for Military Accreditation Scheme (MAS) Credits in Accordance with Article 10 of Commission Regulation (EU) 1178/2011 IR Course Completion Certificate - Aeroplane/Helicopter/Airship Instrument Rating in a Part-FCL Pilot’spasses the relevant skill test for the issue of the applicable type or class rating in accordance with Part-FCL; [ the skill test must be completed with a Part FCL examiner suitably authorised for the rating] Please note that If you are the holder of an existing UK issued JAR Flight Crew licence which has not already been converted to a UK Part-FCL licence, then the conversion process will take place when you apply for this rating. This will require you to send us additional information. If you have flown less than 100 hours on type but are still in current flying practise, you may be eligible for a reduced course of training under the terms of Article 8 of the Aircrew Regulation.

If you are revalidating your TMG by experience and are flying in a European Member State, please note that Certificate of Revalidation held on a licence issued by the UK can be endorsed by a non-UK EASA examiner. A copy of your Examiner's licence, medical and Authorisation (only if you used a non-UK examiner for the skills test) a valid PART-MED medical certificate appropriate for your licence and your medical records must be held by the UK CAA. Your medical records must be held by the UK CAA and you must hold a current and valid PART-MED medical certificate that is appropriate to the level of your licence. For the 0.1% (my estimate) of pilots whose rating lapsed but they can't find an examiner to sign their licence and so require the CAA to do it for them, then this new form and procedure do apply. I guess this might be the unusual case where a pilot is abroad and can't get to an examiner in person to do this. However, since the form does require original documents to be certified by an examiner, it kind of defeats the purpose.
