Licensing confusion please help


Hi there,



I am a Glider pilot who has almost partly completed my LAPL.I have my GPL from the BGA and am around 90% complete on my LAPL thoughscholarship such as the Air League, but have now decided it is not financiallyviable to complete my LAPL. I have opted to try and gain my SLMG as my gliding Clubhas said I would be able to keep up hours tugging on a Diamond Dimona. Fromthis SLMG I know after 75 hours you can get it upgraded to a TMG rating.

I need to know if it is possible to deduct hours from theSLMG hours requirement because I have already got around 30 hours with a FI inSEP aircraft such as the Grob Heron and Piper Warrior, having completed 6 hoursof solo including a solo navigation endorsement. I have not however undertakenany other exams apart from my Air Law nor have I done any Skills tests towardmy LAPL.

What I need to know:

What is required to gain a SLMG

If I am able to tug with a SLMG in a TMG

What the deductions are for someone of my mixed experienceif any

Costs if anyone can take a stab at it

And if possible places I can go to undertake a SLMG

If anyone in the PPRuNe community knows anything about Licensingplease post here. I have done some research I have just hit a block and am soover loaded with information I am just confusing myself further by readinganymore.
Thanks

Jake
