What better excuse to get your IMC training in! You could to the IoM trip as your treat to yourself when rated.
Totally agree - I would love to and would if I could afford it in the time
Looks like this trip may be more difficult than originally thought. Not only can I not fly there, but I can't even land at Andreas - the downfalls of renting. Can't think of a better excuse to stick to local bimbling. Anyone fancy lending me their single engine piston for a day ?
Sorry folks - Rant is off now.....
