ts you do need it.

w euro rules we have to demonstrate our ability to speak English. Do not ign
ore this need. It an absolute requirement to have a valid certificate when a
pplying for the new EASA licence. You can obtain a certificate following a s
uccessful Flight test (remember to ask) or RT test, or accredited Language s
chool or CAA approved circumstance.
