In 2013 EASA agreed that training delivered during a LAPL course would be fully credited towards the PPL if the student decided to change to a PPL course.

In Dec 2016 when the UK CAA asked for confirmation, EASA changed its mind. Mainly because of the fact that some of the LAPL course might have been delivered by a LAPL-only FI.

Last year we heard that some MS evidently do allow the original EASA policy, whereas others including the UK do not.

EASA FS.TEC has now given unanimous support to the IAOPA (Europe) proposal I raised for all training given during a LAPL course to be credited to a PPL course. The proposal is now with EASA GA.COM.
