I have several potential students who have or are considering NPPL training with Personal Medical Declarations.
Could I ask the experts if the following assumptions are correct, based on my interpretation of ORS4 1486?
1) NPPL(M) going solo in PA28 during SSEA class rating training
2) NPPL(SSEA) going solo in PA28 during Night Rating training
3) Ab-initio NPPL(SSEA) student going solo in PA28
1&2 are legal, 3 is not and so would either have to learn on a Non-Part 21 aircraft that they (part) own or go for at least the LAPL with a LAPL medical.
My thinking is that 1&2 are licence holders so qualify for the exemption, whereas the ab-initio doesn’t
If I am wrong, it would seem a lot to ask students to get a LAPL medical purely for mircrolight to SSEA or night training after which they wouldn’t require it.
