Just a shame it doesnt count for PPL(A) hours, cheap hour building.
Good write up though.

It would if you flew the Group A version. Many forget just how cheap flying can be found in the Permit fleet. It doesn't come much cheaper than Streak Shadows, Turbulents, Tipsy's, Rans and the like. Most new 3 axis microlights also come in a VLA version permitted by the PFA, same running costs as a microlight and an increased weight allowance. (Don't get me started with this on this BB !!....)
