Getting a NZ PPL in the UK
 

Hi there I need to get a NZ PPL to enable me to fly a NZ reg aircraft here in the UK, can anyone give some advise or know any NZ examiners in the UK or Europe?
Going to NZ is not an option really and I know that sometimes examiners come to Europe
Thanks for any advise
:ok:

Perhaps you could contact NZ CAA direct. They should be able to advise you.Hopefully without also charging you for it.


Civil Aviation Authority of New Zealand

ok I will give that a go let you know the answer
Thanks

Do you already hold a UK licence? If so you could do a licence conversion. I believe several pilots in Europe have done that. The operators of the various PAC 750's over that way (I'm presuming that is what you will be flying) have made arrangements for the appropriately licensed person(s) to go to Europe for that purpose.

Flight examiners might be a bit thin on the ground over that way for a licence issue.

Perhaps try going down the track of getting a NZ PPL issued on the basis of your UK licence (to NZ CAA) as if you were going to fly in NZ and getting things ready in advance.
