Flying G-reg aircraft in the UK on an FAA PPL?
Some US schools advertise that an FAA PPL is valid for flying G-reg aircraft in UK airspace and you don't need a UK or JAA licence.
Sounds too good to be true.
If it is, it's going to make a lot of people who want to fly helicopters very happy. US training is much cheaper, the FAA require less exams (none of the crap we have to learn and never use) and FAA Private licenses are easier/cheaper to keep current.
The big question is - Is it true?
Anyone know?
