heya dickon,
The flying down here is great as Global Pilot said, no question. The weather is pretty good most of the time. And the girls are top notch too haha. I believe the conversion is basically that - an airlaw exam and the appropriate flight test.
Thanks to everyone for there help, but I don't think I will be able to afford it in the end!! I think just to convert my oz CPL to JAR PPL, i have to do a flight test and sit the human factors and airlaw exams, as well as the UK flight radio exam, which seems fair enough, but I don't think it will work out anyway!
