The situation:
- A chap currently has an NPPL
- He has many thousands of MEP hours as an RAF pilot in the 50s and 60s
- He's just passed his class 2 JAR medical
- He wants to get a JAR licence issued with only an MEPL rating
From my reading of LASORS, if he wanted to change from an NPPL to a JAR PPL with an SEPL he would need 20 hours instruction from a JAR FI but if he wants to train for an MEPL he only needs to have 70 hours total and to have completed the MEPL course (6 flight + 7 ground) and the LST.
Is this right?
