I have just had my Class 2 medical and my AME suggested that I go down the LAPL Medical route as I do not need the privileges of the Class 2 so it would be a cost saving. I have been thinking about this for sometime as I fly single or 2 seat Permit aircraft and my IMC rating has long since lapsed.
My AME said I just need to apply for a LAPL Licence (i think) and surrender my EASA PPL and presumable my UK PPL?? as well. My bi-annual is due in Feb 2020 so I'm assuming I need hour with an instructor who then signs my Log Book and that's it?? I understand the LAPL rolling currency process based on the date of my next flight (I fly around 40hrs / year) so shouldn't be an issue.
I have looked on the CAA site as to process regarding the actual licence conversion, but it's not clear how to do it (or the costs involved).
Can someone knowledgable point in the right direction or highlight what I need to do to obtain a LAPL licence.
