I have same doubts as to whether go through paraglider training to gain the EP to CP ratings, then convert to Paramotor PPG or go direct to the PPG?
I appreciate going the EP-CP-PPG route will probably cost more and will take longer - but will presumably I'll gain greater exposure to thermalling skills and better ground wing handling in differing wind conditions. This route will also give me a formal rating that BHPA will recognize for their £2M insurance purposes.
Please can someone tell me if going direct on the PPG rating route, will I also get the paragliding EP rating on the way? plus will I be eligible for the BHPA insurance cover still without the EP and CP?
Any Thoughts please?
BHPA EP/CP/Power? Around London.

Cheers Half Colin that's helped me to understand the rating system, I just need to weigh up the pro and cons of each route but hopefully will be come to some conclusion very soon.
Another question if I may? Does anyone know if PPG training done in the USA will have any credit here or what if any conversion process is req'd to get CP BHPA cover
