Quick question regarding the requirement to have done a Group 1 flight test within the preceding 12 months of the ATPL application date. Will a PPC for a Navajo certified for single pilot IFR satisfy this requirement? In my mind it should, as the flight test had all exercises required for a group 1 and then some. Just haven't been able to get a straight answer.
Thanks

Re: ATPL Group 1 question
Did the examiner renew your IFR? If yes, you're good to go. If not, did you do all the exercises that are required on an IFR? If you did, you're good to go.
