Highlighting FMG's advice about finding a flying friend. I teamed up with a mate from the flying club, same standard as me, and we fly to places together. When he is P1, I sit in the right-hand seat and look after the radio calls (outside of the cct) to ATC, the navigation and looking out for traffic. We then land at our destination, get refreshments and swop roles. It's great fun and the cost is halved. Also, you have the confidence to go further as a second PPL can hot-plan diversions if the wx goes nasty. Enjoy!
