Hi all,
This is my first post so apologies for any faux pas in advance.
I'm considering taking up flying to satisfy a particular whim; to fly from Biggin Hill to Megeve in the French Alps for a weekend of skiing. And I'd like your opinion on whether this is an achievable goal, or are there any show stoppers?
The challenges beyond achieving a private pilots license appear to me to be flying;
At night
In winter weather
In the mountains
And landing after heavy snowfall (is MVV even open during ski season?)
If there isn't anything insurmountable in this challenge, then your further aside would be appreciated(!)
Many thanks,
TP
