Nearly there........

Been doing my PPL for the past year. Just about to start a new job in the Police, and set myself a target of getting it all finished by the end of march. I completed my flying (syllabus and QXC etc) and just finished last week all my G/S exams. Booked my Skill Test on for this friday (fingers crossed for the weather!).

Just looking for advice/tips etc for the up coming test. I feel fairly well versed and prepared for it, having done a few practice tests and been flying regularly 2 times a week since the start of this year.

Also having (hopefully) passed on friday, what can i look forward to as a new PPL holder? What tips/advice do you guys/gals have with regards to directions and what to do with the liscence etc? I unfortunatly failed my Class 1 medical in Nov 07, and so had to withdraw my successful application to Oxford Air Training School, so obviously i cant go down the CPL route, and would look to use the liscence as fully as i can up to that point!

Sorry for the long essay(!) and i look forward to your responses!

Thanks,

Rob.
