Who licenses pilots in the United Kingdom

Training in the United Kingdom is licensed by the UK Civil Aviation Authority (UK CAA), under UK Part-FCL, the UK's own rules derived from the European set.

The licences, in order

  1. 1.LAPL — Light Aircraft Pilot Licence
  2. 2.PPL — Private Pilot Licence
  3. 3.CPL — Commercial Pilot Licence
  4. 4.ATPL — Airline Transport Pilot Licence

The medical

A UK CAA Class 2 medical for private flying, or a Class 1 for commercial — from a CAA-approved medical examiner or an Aero-Medical Centre.

Rules change. Treat this as the shape of the system, not as advice — the UK CAA is the only source that binds.
