Things are becoming a little bit clearer...
So, if I go for a VLA with a PtF then I'm not allowed IMC/IR or night flying. That's OK. I'm also not allowed to overfly built up areas - is there a definition of what this means? When does a house, or collection of houses, become a built up area?
Are there restrictions on CAS entry? Would a VLA be classed as a microlight for those airports/airfields which don't allow microlights?
And finally for now... does a PtF still require a periodic certification check to revalidate the Permit? And if so, is this as 'strict' as a CoA or something much simpler?
Reason for the questions: I'm currently toying with the thought of diving in and making an outright purchase or joining a group and want to get to know what's what.
