Expired ppl (5 years ago) renew this or go for a NPL 3 axis?

Postby Optic » Sat May 12, 2012 4:54 pm

Hello All,

Need some advice... I would like to get back into recreational flying again but my ppl has been expired for 5 years now.

Should I go for an NPL since all I want to do is recreational flying? Would I have to start the ppl from scratch anyway?

Some info: ppl had a bonanza, 150, 152, 172 and a weight shift Aquila. To complicate matters even further I am 2 meters tall and 130kg of muscle :lol: Can anyone suggest the type of LSA 3 axis I should train in? Remember the instructor has to fit in next to me!

Thanks

Optic

Safari is your best bet I would say. Ask Oupa G and Boet. They fit comfortably and they Are close to your specs. :wink:
