UK then US then UK PPL

Hi guys,

I know this may have been covered numerous times, and I have searched the forum for the answer I'm looking for, but I'm a bit lost in the regulations. Background:

I've currently only got five hours flying in London (one in Scotland) and I'm aiming for my PPL. I would like to spend two weeks in sunny California getting a sun tan and building some of the hours I'll need to clear the 45 hour mark for a PPL, in summer this year. The end goal is to complete my PPL skills test in the UK.

Question therefore being: If I build hours in the US, lets say 20 hours in two weeks, will they count toward my UK JAR PPL if I complete the skills test, medical and all of my exams over here? I aim to have at least fifteen hours UK before going to the US.

Thanks in advance,

Swerve
