Hi,
I have an:
NPPL(A) with SLMG rating
EASA PPL(A) with both TMG and SEP ratings
In order to revalidate by experience, I can keep both my TMG and SEP ratings on my PPL(A) simply by flying only one or the other or a combination of both (I have done the required PIC hours in SEP) PLUS I have done an hours P/UT (Bi-Ennial) in a TMG in the last 12 months.
However, in order to revalidate by experience my NPPL(A), as I only have the SLMG rating on the licence at present I can't cross credit any SEP hours. As stated above I do have 1 hour P/UT in a motor glider.
Is there any point in my paying the £103 fee to add the SSEA rating to my NPPL (which I believe can be done off the back of my PPL SEP rating) in order to keep the NPPL SLMG rating?
The reason I ask is that I now understand that a PPL(A) with LAPL medical can utilise LAPL privileges (aside from revalidation by experience requirements which remain that aligned with the PPL). It is also possible to medical self declare and fly non-EASA types on a PPL(A) and at present even EASA types too until April 2020.
Is there any advantage of keeping my NPPL ratings current?
Thanks
