ED Decision 2020/003/R
HOT-AIR BALLOON GROUP ENDORSEMENTS AND RECENCY
When
complying with recency requirements for the hot-air balloon class in a smaller
balloon group, a licence endorsement related to privileges for a bigger
balloon group does not need to be removed from the licence. Those privileges
for the bigger group remain ‘inactive’ and can be exercised once the recency
requirements are complied with in that bigger group.
For example, if a BPL holder holds privileges for hot-air balloon groups A, B and C and completes the proficiency check in accordance with point BFCL.160 in a hot-air balloon that represents group B, it is not necessary for the BPL holder to have the licence reissued without an endorsement for group C. The privileges for group C can be exercised after complying with recency requirements in group C balloons.
