I have JAA PPL with SEP and TMG rating that has been dormant for 5 years.
I have started flying again in the Hubandss Bosworth Falke with an instructor.
It had been my intention to convert to the EASA PPL but having to have a class2 again even though I only intend to be flying in the UK is offputting.
I have no intention of flying abroad at the moment, but it there is a slim chance of it in the distant future.
The CAA help line suggested that having had a JAA PPL before if I wish to upgrade from LAPL to EASA in the future it would just be a case of getting a class2 again and another application.
Is this correct, from previous dealings with the CAA helpdesk they do not seem to be 100% au fait with the their own regs.
Any opinions would be welcome
