Heading out to Kissimmee

Had a search around but couldn't find anything definitive, so thought I'd throw myself at the collective feet of the forum!

I'm heading out to Kissimmee later this year, and am rather tempted to do a spot of flying out there with someone like OFT, so much so that I am considering holding off doing much, if any, flying in the UK for the moment.

However, I did have a few queries; I'm in that 'second year' period now where I need to do my 12 hours/1 with an instructor to keep my SEP rating. Would it be possible to block book somewhere around 20 hours out there, fly those off and have my SEP rating signed off as valid for a further 2 years, bearing in mind I hold a JAR-PPL issued in the UK? What sort of hoops would I have to jump through?

I'm basically after someone who has done this before, and can outline what is required? Visas, dealing with the FAA, etc etc.

Thanks in advance,
ASI
