The time line for this change is roughly two years after this rule is in place all pilots must replace their ID with the newer version and five years from the rule change other certificates like flight engineers and mechanics certificates must be upgraded to the new standard.

This is sort of odd. They changed over to the new plastic cards a couple years ago or so.

I was originally issued a paper one, but got one of the new plastic ones when they were available. Maybe this is a new rule to require anyone with the old-style paper cert to upgrade to the plastic one?
Its my understanding that it depends on where you were issued the certificate and when. All paper certs. will be replaced by the deadline.
