This Order is a step towards delegating the common microlight theory exam to the FFPLUM. In accordance with Annex IV of the Order, the FFPLUM has submitted an approval application to the DSAC. As we continue to steer our project in coordination with the DSAC, this approval could be issued in November 2021. The first FFPLUM exam centres will then be able to receive candidates.

To meet your expectations, the timetable will be communicated regularly.

We remain at your disposal if you need any clarification.
