My BCAR licences covers all piston engines, in any aircraft, however I would be a fool to say sign off at multi row radial without having worked on it and gained experience..
Interesting when you mentioned
The EU a operate group coverage system as in a way did BCARs
On my EASA Licences
Now not counting the odds and sods I hold outside these groups, I hold amongst other things, group 3 and group 2a.
List here https://www.easa.europa.eu/easa-and-…enance-licence
Start counting from 908 and finish at 2041….that alone is 1,133 variations of aircraft and or engine combinations on my licence! and to be honest, I read though a lot of them and had to look them up on the web to see what they were.
When I went through my experience list though I probably came up with a similar amount, if not a few more. Rarer stuff includes L39’s, Fuga, Spits, Chippies, Stearman, Devons and Mustangs, I even did the radio racking for the Virgin trans some sea/ocean balloon flight, though I think mine came down in the drink, so we don’t mention that one :o.
According to that list I may have to rethink my list. I included all models of Bonanza as one type, not the 4 different models I’ve worked on.. altho with that said it was one each of four models… one or two times (couple of weeks or so for Annuals or 100hr). I think for the sake of simplicity I’ll keep *Bonanza* as one type/model
