I'm afraid you've over-simplified it a bit there Steve (and there's no LAPL microlights)...
'old' UK PPL(A)
old UK PPL(D)
old UK PPL(M)
UK issued JAR PPL
UK issued EASA PPL (gone but still valid)
'new' UK FCL PPL
UK issued EASA LAPL (gone but valid)
UK LAPL (SEP)
'old' EASA LAPL (SEP)
LAPL (microlights)
UK NPPL (aircraft)
UK NPPL (microlights)
UK SLMG PPL
And of course, you missed all the professional licences out.
Yes, complete and utter mess.
We need:-
- UK sub-ICAO PPL (merging some PPLs, all NPPLs and ex-EASA LAPLs, UK-FCL LAPLs)
- UK ICAO PPL (merging UK PPLs, JAR PPLs, ex-EASA PPLs, new UK-FCL PPLs, old UK BCPLs)
- UK ICAO CPL (merging UK, JAR, ex-EASA, UK-FCL)
- UK ICAO ATPL (merging UK, JAR, ex-EASA, UK-FCL)
That is four licences, after that all we need is ratings: class, type, and functional.
