Fascinated by this thread. I've just received today my new EASA one. It's TINY. Why? And why the change of colour? I have my late Aunt's PLL issued in 1949 and it's a similar brown colour to my old JAR licence, although cloth bound. What a shame they had to change them. I always make a point of flying with my aunt's PPL aboard and it always strikes me as good 'juju'. Not sure my niece will feel that about my EASA micro-PPL in 60 years time.
