Then head in the books for distant learning for the EASA exams. Work & save. Hour building with meaningful flying IF/XCTY/Night.

But medical first.
But for the PPL I only need a Class 2, and I want the PPL anyway, so can't I do a Class 1 after I have my PPL?

Also what's wrong with doing the PPL in an EASA approved school abroad, like flyaaa in San Diego?

Finally, distant learning means self-study in my own time, right? If so, why is this better? PPL packages do include ground school for the EASA exams...

EDIT: The initial Class 1 is near to £700 according to Google.. wasn't it much cheaper back in 2013?
