PPl Conversion to MPL

[klein]

Can someone please help.
My son did his PPl and wants to fly microlight now, what needs to be done to convert?
I also want to do MPL , I need to know if I do the same subjects as PPL ? ( I suppose Principles of flight might de different )
We are in Ellisras, Northern Province, does anybody know where the closest School is, to do MPL training.
Thanks. ( Andre )

Hi Klein,
What type of MPL. Is it trikes, LSA, CCM etc.? If it is CCM or LSA then it will only be a conversion. There is a spreadsheet on the RAASA website that details the migration requirements between categories. http://www.raasa.co.za

I think this is the link

Thanks for the info!! It would be for microlight trike, weight shift.
Can u please tell me what the abbreviations LSA and CCM stands for?

Light sport aircraft and conventionally controlled microlight (fixed wing) as opposed to WSM which is weight shift microlight...

Hi Klein

I received the following info from RAASA about a month ago. This is for converting from PPL to Weight Shift MPL.
This is what you need:
Student License
Principles of Flight exam
Airframes Exam
10 hours dual
5 solo take-offs & landings
Cross country on discretion of instructor, if you did your PPL the cross country can be relaxed.
Flight Test

Lourens
