The FAR does NOT state that. *It says 24 calendar months. * You're
good
to the end of the month and it makes no difference if you don't intend
to
fly IFR.


"Intend to", or bust VFR minimums?


Sorry I was not clear....It doesn't matter if you are VFR or IFR.
You need a transponder check in all circumstances.
