I am low hours recently qualified Nppl microlight pilot and i would like to upgrade my licence in the near future to fly larger aeroplanes such as cessnas /pipers/ rvs etc and i have been looking at the ssea rating to lapl and ppl options .
Im very confused as to what is the best route to take as i can see pros and cons for each.
I believe that the Nppl/ssea limits me to uk airspace and living close to a eu/uk border (N.Ireland/S.Ireland) i may have to jump through hoops to fly outside uk airspace.
Also i am getting conflicting information regarding the ssea to lapl to easa licence route some say this is closed and others its opening again in the near future.
I believe i can transfer 10% to a maximum of 10 hours over to the ppl training, As i only have 35 hours pic on the microlight (c42) and i will continue to fly the c42 to build up the hours during my training will i be able to transfer these hours at a later date after ppl traing has started or is it a one time only deal?
Some help would be greatly appreciated
