The NPPL is a new UK rating for use only in the UK. Flying in nice weather, no night and sight of the ground. A recreational licence really.
If you are going down the commercial route then you will need a full PPL (JAR). If the airlines are your goal, then you will need the ATPL opposed to the CPL, but as there is not much in the exams you might as well do the ATPL ones. Once you have done the exams you complete the CPL module of flying and also an IR within 3 yrs of passing your exams.
Don`t worry about being confused it`s all part of the game.
