NPPL Issue
Hi
I am thinking of applying for an NPPL before my JAA PPL expires (it's current - as is my medical)
I have looked at the application form for the NPPL and it says section 8 must be completed (by the Flying Training organisation) to certify that I have completed a course of instruction.
As I already have a JAR PPL and medical do I really need to have this signed or can I just send in my current PPL and medical as proof and get the NPPL issued.
Just to add to the complexity, I am in New Zealand at the moment and literally miles away from the CAA and the regulators/issuers.......
Thanks
Arc

Please see http://www.nppl.uk.com/documents/NPPLXCREV061_000.pdf :
JAR-FCL PPL (A) or UK PPL (A) to NPPL (SEP)
The holder of a JAR-FCL PPL(A) or UK PPL (A) with SEP class ratings who wishes to obtain a NPPL (SEP) shall:
a. Produce the JAR-FCL PPL (A) or UK PPL (A), which includes evidence of validity;
b. Hold a valid NPPL Medical Declaration or JAR-FCL Class 1 or 2 medical certificate.
It should be noted that any additional ratings attached to the JAR-FCL PPL (A) or UK PPL (A), such as the Night qualification or rating, IMC or FI rating are not transferable to a NPPL and the holder’s privileges will be restricted accordingly.
So - just comply with the requirements as above and send the form http://www.nppl.uk.com/documents/NPP...sion14_000.pdf off to NPLG Ltd, together with the relevant payment.
But you won't be able to use your NPPL in New Zealand, unless the NZ CAA gives you permission.
