ZZZZ I believe the requirement is a 5 hour flying course with FIC (aero`s) Rated instructor. Applicant should be competent in Aerobatics before commencing the course, and restriction should have already been removed. If "...up North..." means anywhere near Scotland, Dai Heather Hayes (CAA Examiner) can do the course, normally completed in Pitts Special. He is a great guy with loads of aeros experience. He can be contacted at the CAA Examiners Office at Perth.
Enjoy!
