And don't forget to claim for mileage to attend your medical. Say 35p per mile. And while you are at it, earplugs, computer to access AIS/C's, sunglasses etc. No wanting to sound like a recruiter, but as a BAPLA member I get this sort of info as part of the "package". Pay your money (2/3'rds of which is allowable against tax) and start getting the benefits. Damn site better value for money than a type rating!
