Apologies for my inability to read AND comprehend at the same time!
It seems to me that an NPPL holder with the appropriate HGV type medical can become an instructor. If this is so are you able to be paid as such? And out of curiosity what are the requirements (medical wise) to become a paid JAA PPL instructor (if you know them). The reason I ask is that I can't get a CPL or higher because of a piddling little eyesight thing that just stops me getting a class 1 med, and I'd love to be able to do some professional flying of some sort. At least I can honestly guarantee I wouldn't be just 'using' studes to hour build myself an ATPL because I know I can't get one no matter how many hours I get.
