Ancient mariner :
I believe the typo came from an abbreviation used by the pilot (they are all French nationals) which came out as PPL
Good one !
I did not think of that one , yes in French the old ATPL licence abbreviation is PL ( Pilote de Ligne) and I suppose they must have had a good laugh when they saw the report ! ...
It also show that the guy typing the report has no idea what he/she types...
