Medical Question

My Class 2 medical expires in December, and I am looking at transferring my JAR PPL (A) to the NPPL. What do I need to do to get the medical for the NPPL?

Regards

Andrew

You just need a medical declaration from the GP
Google nppl and it's all there.

You don't need to "transfer[] my JAR PPL (A) to the NPPL". You can maintain the PPL and fly to NPPL restrictions on an NPPL medical declaration, at least until the PPL needs renewing if it isn't a real for-life one.

This has two advantages:

- you don't have to pay for the conversion to an NPPL

- if you ever decide you want to go back to a PPL there's nothing to do and nothing to pay, apart from getting the medical

and no disadvantages that I'm aware of (assuming that you're going to continue to do the same sort of flying on the same sort of aircraft).
