my medical discharge was for a dodgy ankle but its fine now (In my last job, medicals happened once a year and I flew passed every time(sorry no pun intended))
microlights dont really appeal to me, so ill have to go along the JAA route even if it is a greater expense initially.
hour building wont be much of a problem as i dont live far from my local flying club and i have an understanding partner who knows that i often work away from home anyway
thanks for your great insight tho
