All AOPA Corporate Member RFs and FTOs should have received a circular with brief NPPL details in it; they have also been invited to send not more than 2 pre-registered members to a NPPL Seminar and Briefing at Sywell on 20 Jun. Unfortunately I can't go as I have to nip off to Africa for a couple of days with the day job.
There is a complete, bound NPPL guide soon to be available from AOPA as well as a helpline and e-mail address for more detailed queries. There is also a web page with full documentation to be announced shortly; all documents will be downloadable in .pdf format.
The CAA will issue the NPPL, the cost of which is £131.00 for a lifetime licence, subject to receiving the paperwork from their designated administration agents. These will be National Pilot Licensing Group for all except NPPL(Microlight) which will be administered by the BMAA much as it does currently.
The 'live' date is now expected to be 29 Jul 2002.
