Training for a LAPL (Light Aircraft Pilot's Licence) has similar requirements to the EASA PPL, except the flight training time needed is a minimum of 30 hours with a shorter (100 NM) solo qualifying cross country flight.

The LAPL is not a licence recognised outside Europe. Other restrictions are that flights can only go ahead in good weather (known as VFR) and with no more than 3 passengers, plus a maximum aircraft weight of 2000Kgs.

The LAPL course comprises:

15 hours dual instruction

6 hours solo, of which 3 must be cross country

1 hour instrument flying

9 theory exams

Practical radio exam

Flight test with one of our examiners

You will also need a medical from an approved GP - the medical required for a LAPL is less onerous than that for a PPL.

We are able to supply all books and equipment required for the LAPL course through our shop.

As with the PPL, preparation for the exams is all self-study but we can provide ground school if you need extra assistance with a particular subject.
