Frequently
Asked Questions

A: The certificate itself does not expire. However, it can only be used for licence endorsement within a limited period. Under Part-66 / CAR-66 Appendix III, the type training course — theoretical and practical elements, and the OJT/OJE if this is your first type rating in the category or subcategory — must be started and completed within the 3 years preceding your application to the NAA. In practice this means the complete set of documents must reach the NAA within 3 years of your first training day. Separately, once you are exercising certification privileges, the maintenance organisation must provide you with continuation training at least every 2 years (Part-145 / CAR-145). This is an organisational requirement for keeping your authorisation current — it is not a condition of the type training certificate's validity.
