It's reassuring to know that it's so quick.
Does anybody know if there is an FAA FSDO anywhere in the UK or nearby in Europe?
I want to get the FAA licence so that I can fly a friend's UK-based but N-registered aircraft in Europe, so going all the way across the Atlantic to pick up the piece of paper would be a little extravagant. Sadly I don't have enough time off from work at the moment to be able to take a few days and actually fly in the States to make it worthwhile, though I'd love to do that later on.
