BEagle,
Thanks for posting the link to the NPPL proposal, which I'm now perusing.
Can anyone compare the programme to the "old" CAA PPL - that was originally a 30/35 hour pattern, was it not?
For fun flying (i.e. not a step on the way to commercial) the NPPL seems the way forward, and there are three people in my family who are waiting on it ('tho one may go JAR).
I'm in favour of the IMC - needed for UK flying - and intend to respond to the proposal (not a PFA/AOPA member yet).
Any easy explanation why Night is a no-no? The paper indicates medical issues?
