Aerospace / Aviation / Space / título de piloto de transporte
Spanish term or phrase: licencia IR(A)
Traducción al inglés británico del título de piloto de transporte expedido en España:

"Está autorizado a ejercer las atribuciones siguientes:
-Todas las del titular de una licencia de PPL(A), una CPL(A) y una IR(A). "

Estas siglas en realidad ya están en inglés y se usan tal cual en español, pero no encuentro a qué hace referencia "IR(A)".

Gracias!

Made a mistake there. Should read 'licence' only.

LICENCE = noun
LICENSE = Verb
