Section C1.2 - Credits for Previous Experience and Training - Page 3
Any previous flying training gained during a PPL(A) course conducted in another JAA Member State (other than the UK) may be credited with such flight time towards the issue of a UK JAR-FCL PPL(A). Applicants who intend to continue with their training with a UK Registered Facility or FTO, must in the first instance contact the Authority of the Member State in which training was commenced. The applicant should confirm with that other State that they will allow them to continue their training with a UK training provider, and agree that the UK will be the ‘State of Licence Issue’.
If the other State agrees then the applicant will be required to obtain written confirmation to this effect in order for all previous PPL training to be recognised by the UK CAA. The applicant should also arrange with the other JAA State for any PPL training records to be forwarded onto the new Registered Facility or FTO. If the other State does not give agreement then the UK CAA will only recognise up to a maximum of 10 hours of the previous training towards the overall 45 hour requirement for licence issue. The applicant will in this case be required to complete the further 35 hours as specified in Flying Training Requirements.
