ED Decision 2023/011/R

CONVERSION OF RATING AND RATING ENDORSEMENTS

When converting the privileges, the competent authority should include, in item IX of the licence, the aerodrome control (ADC) rating with the date of first issue of the aerodrome control instrument (ADI) rating, and the aerodrome control surveillance (SUR) rating endorsement with the date of first issue of the aerodrome radar (RAD) rating endorsement. At the same time, the ADI rating and the RAD rating endorsement should be removed from the licence.

The aerodrome control visual (ADV) rating should be removed from item IX, except for those air traffic controllers that hold a valid unit endorsement attached to the ADV rating.

The ground movement control (GMC), air control (AIR), tower control (TWR) and ground movement surveillance (GMS) rating endorsements should be removed from item IX at the time of conversion of ADI to ADC.

The terminal control (TCL) rating endorsement should be removed from item IX upon revalidation or renewal of the unit endorsement.
