Migrate to LAA land? Are you sure? See my questions below to someone who should know - their answers in bold itallics:
I simply want to fly low performance, lightweight aircraft in daytime VFR conditions with the minimum of fuss. I am happy with the NPPL medical and really feel that the NPPL is adequate for my needs. I am currently in a group flying a Eurostar microlight and would like to buy an LAA aircraft “Streak Shadow” which requires an SSEA licence.
Can you give me the definitive answer to these questions please:
1) Will the NPPL (SSEA) evolve into an LAPL with higher medical requirements?
2) Will the NPPL (SSEA) stay as it is but require higher medical requirements?
1.The NPPL (SSEA) will evolve into the LAPL- however the medical requirement have not yet been fixed by Brussles (!)
2. The NPPL will become the LAPL and you will exchange it before 2015 sometime.
