Also, I'm not sure if this is appropriate for the Private Flying forum; as I expect you'll find more useful responses (indeed, the question may even have been asked already!)from one of the Wannabes forums.
Seeing as you ask, it doesn't seem wildly inappropriate for someone to post a question about private flying in the Private Flying forum.
Moreover, it says on the tin:
