Nobody would have a clue who was flying, and even if they did, in France
they would have no idea about the difference between a PPL and an NPPL! I
flew for years here in France on a PPL, regularly getting my licence renewed
by DGAC instructors on F registered aircraft - and only recently discovered
that this was illegal and that I should have had a JAR PPL. Nobody noticed,
not even the DGAC themselves when I had to send my licence to Paris for my
IFR rating renewal. Nobody has a clue with all these complicated
bureaucratic rules governing the different sorts of licences - even the
authorities themselves. So just don't worry about it and enjoy the flight.
