Guest Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 The actual answer is Yes you do require a license (leaving all of the complicated bits out) I will talk to you about this in more detail when you pop down SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobra Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 we dont bother at northrepps, not even in microlight, only 2 people have the RT licence and that's both microlight instructors. It's is not a requirement when you get your GFT and licence. I enquired as I am doing my NPPL at the moment and have passed all my exams for it, and was told by the CFI Norwich Airport don't waste my money on the RT not req'd for the licence and not really regulated.

cobra Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I suppose the same rule applies regardless as technically you are still a radio station when flying, either way forget about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon101 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 2m and airband are completely different or am i being a moron? 2m-no licence required? airband-licence needed? 2m for the likes of us and airband for microlights i thought.
