Brexit among other things but mainly cost and my general overall health. Like I said, I'm not exactly as fit as I was in my early 20's, stress at work taking it's toll, etc. so I'm also worried that I would fail the medical and be out of £500+ with nothing to show for it. This is why I'm looking at doing it elsewhere and killing two birds with one stone.... if I fail, then I still killed one bird.
I always look at the worst-case scenarios, which I'm told isn't exactly a good thing.
But all of this may be a moot point very soon. I've signed up for a few flights at the local flight school so flying here in the UK will mean getting my medical here anyway. Sent an email to one of the AeMCs as well to schedule an appointment.
