For anyone who's done any flying recently in the States, any pointers on the main differences between flying here and over there? I'm thinking particularly around basic flight planning, RT/ATC, VFR flying, met, FBOs, fuelling, etc. Any memorable 'pluses and minuses' would be useful (and yes, I know it's a lot cheaper . . .
I'm off to California for a month in the summer to do some hour building - not quite sure what to expect having done all my flying (pre-PPL and since) more or less on the same patch here in the UK.
Cheers,
