costs and options

Hello,


I am brand new to the forum and i would like to learn how to fly - havent taken a lesson yet but i have my car up for sale to start to fund the lessons.

I have a few general questions that i hope someone can help me with

1 - how much does it cost to get a basic license?

2- i will ultimately want to fly abroad (europe) do i need a different license? if so again what is the cost in training exams etc

3 - having a license without something to fly is not much use, so how do you people on here fly, do you rent planes? if so what is the costs per day / hour? i.e. if you wanted to go for a weekend somewhere in europe - examples of cheap ownership would be most gratefully accepted.

As you can tell at this moment in time i know nothing about nothing, the bottom line is i want to be able to a small plane to europe

I would be particularly interested in hearing from people that are just starting or have just started also - especially if based in edinburgh.

thanks
