Hi There

I did my jar ppl with fly in spain in 1996. I now live in South Africa.

Spain does not allow night vfr. for my jar night rating, Brian and I flew to Faro in portugal.Portugal allowes night vfr.

So we actually submitted an IFR flight plan to Faro, flew there did some practise touch and goes and then I did the 5 solo touch and goes, paid my landing fees and flew back to Jerez under another IFR flight plan. We were able to do this as Brian is IF rated obviously.

Brian is a great instructor and know his thing. The school is actully run by him under his own company BMaviation. He has a partnership with Hans and Fly In Spain to use his aircraft.
