2024 season opens for new members!

Federation news4 October 20231 min read

The 2024 season is open to everyone who did not hold a licence in 2023! There are several possible cases:

  • You were a member in 2022 but not yet in 2023. You do not need to present a new medical certificate confirming you are fit to fly microlights; you only need to complete the health questionnaire!
  • You were a member in 2021 or earlier. To take out your 2024 licence, you will need to present a medical certificate confirming you are fit to fly microlights.
  • You have never been a member of the French Microlight Federation. For any new licence in a sports federation, you will also need to provide a medical certificate confirming you are fit to fly microlights.

Log in to your member area: https://licencie.ffplum.fr to renew your FFPLUM 2024 licence! If you do not have an account, click the black circle “Create my account”. At first, you will receive your 2023 licence by post, along with your insurance certificates valid until 31 December 2023. The 2024 season items (licence and any insurance cover) will be available in your member area from 1 December 2023.
The insurance cover taken out will also be valid until 31 December 2024, that is 15 months for the price of 12.
Members for the 2023 season will be able to renew their licence for the 2024 season from the afternoon of 1 December 2023 (the officials' and members' areas will be down for maintenance during the night of 30 November to 1 December). Handy for ensuring continuous insurance cover between New Year's Eve and the new year!

New for 2024: digital FFPLUM licence!

As part of an eco-responsible approach to reduce its environmental impact, FFPLUM will no longer send licences by post. They can be viewed and printed from your member area.
