Mike,
I have not seen the new licence, as I said the last one I was issued is
in the little green cloth folder - Do I need a new licence and my ASIC ?

Stuart, Cath
I too still have the original green fabric covered folder with DCA on it
(and the UK Board of Trade Licence that's the same size as the new one CASA
is issuing currently). The DCA one is still valid, as is the credit card
one - but the credit card format had the disadvantage of not containing
your list of ratings and endorsements - so it falls short of the
international standard, which is why these were changed.
The new licences issued now include a photo ID page with all the latest
security devices - except that somebody else (with a poor security record
and a bad case of paranoia) doesn't want to accept it and wants to issue
their own instead at great cost to the holder. At least our licences are
valid for life - the UK ones are now issued for 10 years (mine was for 5)
and the ID photo is also valid for 5 years, the same as my car driver's
licence with a different photo ID.
I keep the new green folder licence with the security ID photo in my flight
bag, and the plastic card and medical certificate in my wallet, along with
the driver's licence and most of the pilot certificates from the other
sport aviation organisations.
