solo flying under supervision of a CAA qualified instructor in Self-Propelled Hang Glider.dual flying with a CAA qualified instructor.This syllabus will be in accordance with the current NPPL (M) pilots Licence with operational limitations and can be viewed on the BMAA website (at: dual training, agreed by all to be an invaluable part of your training, can only take place in an approved Microlight.the BMAA has a network of CAA approved instructors totally familiar with the syllabus and able to carry out the training.it has a proven Syllabus appropriate to the aircraft type.The BMAA is in unique position to administer the training because To provide a safe training option the BMAA has a training package that suits this type of aircraft and which also has the bonus that it allows you to progress through to ultimately gaining an NPPL (M) if you wish to do so in the future. Although you do not require a licence you will obviously need some training to enable you to fly the aircraft SAFELY and properly and the BMAA strongly advises that you take this training with an experienced instructor, not just your mate who “does a bit of flying” (question 2).
MOTORIZED HANG GLIDER LICENSE REGISTRATION
These aircraft are exempt from registration and also the pilot does not require a pilot’s licence to fly them (question 1).
MOTORIZED HANG GLIDER LICENSE FULL
an aircraft comprising of an aerofoil wing and a mechanical propulsion device which a) has a stall speed or minimum steady flight speed in the landing configuration not exceeding 20 knots calibrated airspeed and b) has a maximum unladen mass, including full fuel, of 70 kg, or 75 kg if the aircraft is equipped with an emergency parachute recovery system.
These wheeled SPHG aircraft are defined as follows: Prior to this point all take-offs had to be by foot, hence footlaunched aircraft. Strictly speaking these aircraft are termed Self-Propelled Hang Gliders (SPHG)! In April 2017 the CAA issued an exemption allowing Self-Propelled Hang Gliders to be fitted with wheels. The most common questions at the moment are “Do I need a Licence to fly the new Sub 70Kg Microlights?” and “Do I need to take training?”
At the BMAA we often get asked for clarification on new aviation regulations.
