Hi Alan
Sadly you cannot do that. The new LAPL licence is similar to the EASA licence in
this respect
Unfortunately unless you qualified recently I.e. in the seven years you will
only
have basic English endorsed on your licence. So would still recommend that
you have ask for the certificate the next time you have some form of check with
an instructor or take advantage of one of the other routes I mentioned earlier
In respect of the of the NPPL. Though there is an extra years grace on the
validation
of the licence itself the CAA application form refers to both NPPL and
EASA.
Have some sympathy for the CAA. We are now a multicultural society in the UK.
Many
natural born Englishmen do not necessarily have English as their first language.
So get the certificate level 6 ( Expert) and you need not be bothered about it
again. Trust this helps
Regards
Bob
