Hi,
My son is converting from NPPL to EASA
Training complete for conversion of NPPL SSEA to EASA PPL A, done a skills test etc , the NPPL was issued 8 years ago so qualifies for conversion via the virtual LAPL to PPLA route ( think I have that correct )
Were both totally confused with regard to the application process and if anyone out there has recently managed this please help! And that is despite talking to the CAA who basically redirected me to the website which did not answer my queries in the first place.
I do know this has to be a paper application, the confusion centres around the documentation that needs to be provided.
1/. Exam passes ? well these were 8 years ago and surely its explicit in the issue of the NPPL, I doubt weather the training organization would have copies . Q is this required for this conversion.
2/. Qualifying cross country certificate , It has been done and entered up in log book ,not quite sure if this is required or even available.
3/. Which actual form to use ? I can only find the form for initial issue of PPL and no document checklist for this specific type of application. Is there a particular form ?
There is so much vagueness on this process , if you have recently applied for such we would be indebted for your advice , if your an instructor / examiner with the requisite experience likewise.
Regards
Alan
