Best Way?!
Hi,
Is this a good route to take to end up as a ppl(a)?
I have no intention in becoming an airline pilot
My goal is to do it that way and to buy a cheap microlight once ive got my nppl , then when i have got my ppl and other ratings etc , then sell the microlight and get a class a aircraft.
Dont know everything about the rules and regs , i just think this would be the best way as i get to get alot of experience and get to fly a different amount of aircraft and still end up with teh same result which is PPL(A) WITH OWN AIRCRAFT)

- Do NPPL in say 45-50 hrs
- get experience under my belt for a year ro so
- Then do the conversion course to get my ppl(a)
- Stay at that for a while to get more experience
- Then do the other courses (imc, night and tailwheel)

Agreed. Just go straight for the PPL(A).
The NPPL was desgined for people who may not have been able to get a Class 2 medical and who don't want to carry on with further qualifications. Neither of these are applicable in your case.
