Is it not possible to get an NPPL issued if one already holds a fixed wing ICAO licence such as CAA PPL? I understand given the lack of a SEP rating on the PPL the NPPL would not automatically carry a SSEA rating, but it may be a case of undertaking some training in a microlight for the purposes of SSEA rather than having to complete the entire NPPL course? In which case it may be a number crunching exercise. How much training would be required for SEP in Group A thus enabling the holder to fly both v training in a microlight for SSEA and only flying microlights on the NPPL....
