Training and Jobs prospects in Ireland
I am current training for my PPL(H) in Ireland and have about 10hrs completed. I had a Class 2 medical done some time back but it looks like I will not pass as my eyesight was too poor before I had the Laser Operation (although I have perfect 20/20 vision now). I have made my case to the IAA but its not looking good.

This leaves me with only one option – heading over to the US to train under the FAA.

I am only interested in fly as a hobby so I am wondering how this will affect me when I return. Am I correct in saying I can only fly G registered a/c in Ireland. If so, what are the chances of finding/renting an R22/Schweizer here?

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks
