TMG/SLMG Rating on PPL(A)
Can somebody confirm a few details of putting a SLMG/TMG rating on my JAR PPL(A) (normal SEP type).
I've been told that to fly a Falke Motor Glider (or a Grob which is arriving soon so I'm told) I need differences training (fair enough) and then a GFT in it to get a TMG rating on my licence.
My understanding is that once this is done, any hours I do in either SEP or TMG are logged and count towards normal yearly minima. (I'm ignoring currency issues here). They will both be 'renewed' concurrently.
Is this correct/partially right/rubbish?
Additionally, as the Falke and Grob are taildraggers (& the Grob has a VP prop), do these differences count towards relevent differences sign-offs wrt my SEP rating. I haven't any SEP T/D time but would like some!
Incidently, I do have some gliding experience already and plan to do a bit more before trying a motorglider.
