Upgrade from SPL (TMG) to LAPL(A) / PPL(A) SEP
Already flying sailplanes with a Touring Motor Glider (TMG) endorsement on your SPL? You’re closer than you think to stepping into the world of powered flight with a full LAPL(A) or PPL(A) and Single Engine Piston (SEP) class rating.
At Oxfordshire Sport Flying, we make the transition smooth and rewarding — whether you’re aiming for more flexibility, a broader range of aircraft, or working toward commercial flying goals.
Why make the switch?
Adding a LAPL(A) or PPL(A) with SEP lets you:
Fly a wider range of powered aircraft
Operate from more airfields, in more conditions
Carry more passengers (especially with a PPL)
Log hours toward advanced ratings or professional licences
Your existing skills with TMGs give you a strong head start. Our instructors help bridge the gap efficiently — with training focused on what’s new, not what you already know.
Why train with us
We’ll assess your current logbook and help design a personalised training route.
Experienced instructors with both glider and powered aircraft expertise
In-house testing – no need to go elsewhere for your Skills Test
Friendly, flexible scheduling from our base at Enstone Aerodrome
Train in our Piper Cherokee Warrior II – ideal for transitioning from TMGs
