When I started reading I was going to give you the same sage advice that you got from Gengis.

After I had an MI 25 years ago I was required to spend a fortune on cardiac reviews (ECG, EEG, Treadmills)b each year to maintain a Class 2 and eventually I was delighted to find (and have with it the blessing of my cardiologist) the self declaration route. That works a treat and allows me to spend every Saturday morning bimbling around Surrey, Sussex, Kent, Essex and Hampshire alone and VFR.

If you ever hear me on Farnborough LARS in BUIJ then think of the money I am saving that allows me an extra 5 hours of flying a year. I thoroughly recommend it.
