Are you sure? Last time I checked it was impossible to get your PPL without having done so..
DozzyWannabee, No, I don't know for sure, but last time I checked, years ago, not sure how many, the stall and recovery requirement for a PPL, was taken out, because the private aircraft industry, thought, if they made it easier, or less frightening, to become a private pilot, they'd be more private pilots to buy private aircraft, so they used their influence, to accomplish this change. I don't know what all countries may have changed, but I'm thinking of the US. Does anyone on the forum have current or more accurate info on this issue? Maybe it's the madness coming back?
