There is not a 'currency' for a particular aircraft. As a pilot with
Single Engine Land rating, I can fly a Skyhawk today, and jump in the
Warrior tomorrow.
It depends on the aircraft. For light airplanes in the single-engine land
category, for example, you are correct. But aircraft that require a type
rating also require specific currency requirements for that aircraft.
It is wrong to make a general statement that "there is not a 'currency' for
a particular aircraft". That statement is true only in specific situations,
even in the US.

Ok.. You are correct in the big picture. However, In the example I
used, a PP-SEL going from a C172 to a Warrior the next day, there is
not a currency requirement.
The OP did not specify if the aircraft in question required a type
rating or not. I just ASSUMED that to not be the case. Mistake on my
part.
