Not the culture down the road at Dunstable - experienced solo pilots are never required to take a checkride, and would not very often request one.

EASA SPL and LAPL(S) licences have 24 month limit between checkrides, so you might want to have a word with those experienced pilots.


Per EASA, these are no check rides, but training flights - i.e. you can't fail them.
