I had a good read, and understood about 1% of that!

So, here's two questions, if anybody fancies taking a punt at answering.

1. After 8/4/2012, are all new licenses issued going to be EASA, or will they continue to issue NPPL until 8/4/2014 (or was it 2015)?

2. At present, there is a conversion path from NPPL(M) to NPPL(SSEA). Will that disappear after 2012, 2014, 2015, or what? I seem to recall reading something about NPPL(M) will only count as minimal contribution towards the new EASA PPL, but what about the EASA LAPL?

I'm learning to fly a fixed wing microlight now, and that is what I am most interested in right now. However, I was thinking that some time in the future, it might be fun to convert that to an NPPL(SSEA). Is that going to be barred to me after April 2012? If so, I better get my skates on!
