Two ways to study each course

Full course

The course material, personal instructor support, and the progress tests and exams.

Tests & exams only

Just the question bank: the progress tests and exams, to check you're ready.

Both are sold by the month. Compare them in detail.

  1. 01

    Which aircraft is each course for?

    Some of the courses are common between Aeroplane, Helicopter and Gyroplane pilots, whilst others are only applicable to one of these. Each of the courses below shows the "Licence Types" for which they are applicable.
  2. 02

    What happened to the LAPL?

    Note that in the UK the LAPL(A) and LAPL(H) are no longer issued, instead, new licences will either be a NPPL(A), NPPL(H) or a PPL(A) or PPL(H) depending on the aspirations of the pilot, the training performed and the medical achieved.
  3. 03

    9 CAA exams, or 5 BMAA exams?

    The NPPL theoretical knowledge requirements are that you can either take the 9 CAA on-line exams (the same as for the PPL), or you can take the 5 NPPL paper exams which are issued by the British Microlight Aircraft Association (but you will need to find an organisation that can set you those papers). Our honest opinion is that you're better off taking the 9 PPL exams to cover you for future potential licence upgrades. If you choose to do the 5 NPPL exams only, and then wish to upgrade the licence to a PPL, you'll need to study for and undertake the NPPL to PPL online Bridging exams.
