Guide for hours

Dear All

I know that I am an exception to the rule but I could easily haved passed the NPPL in the 32 hours required. My background? An experienced RAF Navigator, who having gone solo (at 10 hours)had to "Bore holes in the sky" on 3 hour navexs to get my hours up to the 45 hours required for the JAR PPL. I would have passed after about 18 hours (After my intro to instruments).

However, this does not have to be restricted to HMForces. I am sure there are a plethora of microlight, SLMG and Glider pilots who will be attracted to the 32 hours as well.

Good luck with sorting the new syllabus guys and I look forward to hearing about the 32 hour "specials".
