NPPL or PPL

Hi people.

First post here.

I want to get my PPL and have seen the NPPL details. Is it worth it rather than the full PPL? I know it is cheaper but would it just be better going for the latter? I would eventually love to fly outside the UK but probably not to start with.

Are there any other ways to obtain the PPL? I've heard it is cheaper to gain hours on a microlight and then convert. Any remarks?

I am in Welwyn in Herts and have looked at a few clubs, anybody recommend one?

I am considering a club at Cranfield airport, mainly because they have a tower and I think it might be more beneficial to training than an airfield.

Any other hints for a newbie would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Lee.
