PPL Guide is an instructor designed, student orientated, easy access blog of information on how to start your PPL. We intend for it to answer all the common questions that pop up, so you don’t have to spend hours searching online for the info you need on how to start your PPL
The CAA website is a good source of information. PPL Guide however goes a little deeper and covers more of the things that we see regularly asked by budding pilots. Personal experience is the key source of our information, and for the offical rules and regulations we use:
- The Air Navigation Order (ANO)
- The Standardised European Rules of the Air (SERA)
- EASA Part-FCL (European Flight Crew Licencing regulations)
There are many other sources besides these. You don’t have to dig particularly deep to find thousands of pages of information, most of which won’t be directly relevant. This is why we’ve decided to do the digging for you!
We also provide one to one ground school tuition and advice for those who want to ask the more complicated questions and give themselves the best chance of success in those pesky ground exams! Our ground school sessions will be tailored to you
