I did my NPPL(M) on the EV97 Eurostar last year. Started in April and passed my GST on 3 October after getting back from a couple of weeks in the sun. I did it in a fairly concentrated manner by trying to fly two days most weeks and often doing two lessons on each of those days. I'm sure that the momentum gained from flying so regularly was a big help. I also used to rehearse every part of the flying in my mind prior to the flight, that also helped. My instructor did say to me on one occasion that he could tell who had never thought about flying since their last lesson.
SWMBO reckoned I was obsessed with flying, but hey it's been a dream for so many years and I'm savouring every moment up there
