The cross country requirements in the LAPL to PPL upgrade should be credited if already done when flying on the LAPL. It’s pointless requiring them as part of the upgrade course if the pilot has already toured for tens or hundreds of hours using their LAPL.
Just found your podcast. Amazing information but can you guys sort out the sound please? Not an audio guy so dunno how to describe it but it is a loud echoey buzzing feeling. Esp from the host on the right. Makes it really hard to hear and if you increase the volume, kinda hurts.
so what happens once the intial issue medical expires? have to do the real medical i assume? but then i guess it would be a lot easier for a doctor to approve it as youd have been flying fine all that time?
I'd rather see more effort into negotiations with EASA in mutual recognition of each other's licenses or at least a simple way with minimal fuss. It wasn't that long ago that they were interchangeable. Now politics has got in the way instead of being sensible.
If they are changing icao requirements it means they will be moving further away from easa requirements. I guess this means easa are less likely to recognise the icao licenses. So if you're like me living in spain with a icao ppl license with minimum hours I'm still screwed and will be permanently 😢
ICAO standard licenses are not changing. ICAO requirements are not changing. ICAO is not UK. The UK CAA PPL is an ICAO standard license. The EASA PPL is an ICAO standard license. This is not changing. A UK LAPL and a UK NPPL are both sub ICAO standard licenses and are likely to change. Both EASA PPL requirements and UK CAA PPL requirements are based on ICAO standards....
