Wider implications?
In addition, the FATPL would have a fighting chance of air taxi/turbo prop/instruction/photography flying etc etc without having to convert or add ratings having only 70hrs SEP.
Aside from the considerations for the individual, I am also concerned about the affect the MPL could have on GA in the UK. If SEP/MEP flying is reduced or not required as part of the MPL, and the scheme catches on, will this not mean many flying clubs and schools could be in trouble? Great if you are a sim instructor, bad for everyone else in flying training.
As you all know, flying schools breed an interest in aviation feeding commerical flying schools and eventually the airlines.
Interested in your thoughts.
