Hi Basil. May well do. There is a flight school ten minutes down the road. If it goes smoothly I can do a PPL for about £8k. I'm off there on Saturday for a taster session, so hopefully all goes well.
Could then do the remaining licences in Slovenia, learning to fly between the Alps and the Adriatic sounds very appealing!
Any thoughts on whether Brexit will create an issue with EASA licences, and will they need converting to UK CAA equivalent? If so, would this likely just be a paperwork exercise?
