Similar in many ways, the LAPL has more restrictions than the PPL, the weight of the aircraft and number of passengers are restricted but the medical and skills test are a little less demanding.
The CAA state ‘The privileges of the holder of an LAPL for aeroplanes are to act as PIC on single-engine piston aeroplanes-land (SEP land), single-engine piston aeroplanes-sea (SEP sea) or touring motor glider TMG with a maximum certificated take-off mass of 2000 kg or less, carrying a maximum of 3 passengers, such that there are always a maximum of 4 persons on board of the aircraft. Your privileges will be limited to the type and class of aircraft you take your skill test in unless you complete additional training.
NO additional costs, NO membership fees, NO monthly fees, NO circuit fees, NO landing fees!
