The Great Circles Fast Track NPPL course has been carefully designed to ensure that our students get the most out of their time spent with us.
The NPPL is aimed at recreational pilots who wish to fly within the UK during the daytime. In the light of this, it has a lower minimum hours requirement than the JAR PPL licence. It also differs in the medical requirements, which are now signed off by your own GP rather than by a specialist Aviation Medical Examiner.
Since the NPPL is a national licence only, you cannot currently use it to fly outside the UK. You cannot add night or instrument ratings to an NPPL either, but you can credit 30 hours of your training time towards a JAR PPL if you wish to move on to that licence later, as long as all your instruction was carried out by a JAR instructor.
Course Overview
The current requirement is a minimum of 32 hours flight training, in two parts. In addition to the training hours, at least two hours will be required for the practical flight tests.
