I need to revalidate my UK PPL SEP, normally if doing it by experience its 12 hours in the last 12 months. I don't meet this requirement only having 8 hours SEP. I do have however 6 hours fixed wing microlight, can anyone refer me to where it says I can use these hours for my revalidation. I have spoken to three instructors and none are certain of the requirement. I only have one month left, I have brain fade looking through all the ORSA and CAP 804.
Many thanks.
John

Re: revalidating a UK PPL
Donald, Many thanks, what a detailed answer. I hope it means yes. My PPL is a non FCL being an old UK license. You are either in the industry or very clever at sifting through the jargon.
I sold my permit aeroplane last October thats why I have so few hours this last year. I have read here and there thats its possible but never read it in a CAA publication.
Again many thanks
John

You're welcome, John.
I googled "heures ulm ppl", because it was a big deal in France and up popped this article, with the AMC in English. Another google for Part FCL Easy Accesss to cut and paste, and there you have it.

Further to my investigations, I have found Irv Lee has an excellent publication, one of his FAQ no.31 refers to my situation, http://www.higherplane.co.uk/faq.html
I also found a very useful chart by Dave White.
