| Useful forums and discussions for the UK SA PPL |
If you are looking for a forum for any reason, you could try:
The Flyer Forum - probably the most popular G.A. site in the UK The PPRUNE African Section - Professional pilots with some G.A. Aviation Community in S.A - a S.A. based forum for G.A. |
| New Starters |
If you are not a pilot yet and are new to 'G.A.', you probably want a very simple explanation of various terms and abbreviations you see (for example: 'G.A.' itself), try 'G.A. Abbreviations' or if you need clarification on training requirements, contact our 'rules and regs' expert, Glynis (see above). |
