On a similar theme, I currently fly light (LAA permit) aircraft on a LAPL (A).
I understand that "Article 150 of ANO 2016 requires the holder of an EASA licence with a valid Single Engine Piston Class Rating to complete differences training with an appropriately qualified Instructor prior to flying as pilot in command of a microlight aeroplane. This includes three axis microlights as well as weightshift microlights."
However, my question is, does this differences training have to take place after the issue of the LAPL (A) or does it still count if it took place earlier?
My differences training to three axis microlights took place many years ago when I had a CAA PPL(A). I subsequently became a microlight instructor for three years, although I only flew three axis microlights.
However, I have not flown a three axis microlight for several years. Do I have to do differences training again to fly a three axis microlight on my LAPL(A)?
PS It might be sensible anyway, particularly in an unfamiliar type, but I am unsure of the legal position.
