What's new for youth grants

News26 February 20181 min read

News from 26 February 2018. Last updated on 27 February 2018: some information may have changed. Latest news

From the 2017/2018 school year, the grant of €35 rises to €40 per flight for affiliated clubs and schools,

allowing students in the national education system enrolled in the BIA option to take an introductory flight.
Among the documents to be supplied when preparing the application for funding, in the list of students, only parental consent needs to be provided; there is no need to provide a medical certificate stating no contraindication to microlighting.
The current documents remain valid; we will update them shortly with a few corrections... we will keep you informed.

Support for young people's pilot training (under 25, FFPLUM members, training in an FFPLUM-affiliated club or school)

For under 25s who are FFPLUM members, training at an FFPLUM-affiliated club: from 1 January 2018, the grant becomes a single payment of €400, whether or not the training school is accredited.
An additional grant of €150 is paid if the student holds the BIA before starting their training.
Wishing you lovely and safe flying!
