Just a quick tip. If you intend to fly within Eire on an NPPL or PPL(M), then you will need to hold at least a Class 2 medical. The IAA has just released an AIC banning any form of aviation, including paramotors, foot launched microlights, microlights and light aircraft unless the pilot holds a Class 2 medical chit.
This effectively prevents any UK NPPL or PPL (M) holder from even crossing the border from the North, let alone flying over from the UK mainland.
