Czech Republic:
- Class G is 0-1000 ft AGL everywhere except CTRs, with class E from 1000 ft AGL up to FL95 - accordingly, you don't need a clearance but can get traffic service if you want.
- 8 towered airports, 84 non-towered, about 80 ultralight airfields, dozens of old crop dusting strips, off-airfield landing allowed with permission of the land owner. All in a country 1/3 the area and 1/6 the population of the UK.
- Landing fees at non-towered aerodromes mostly in the £2 - £5 range.
- Helpful ATC, getting a TMA/CTR/TRA transit is hardly ever a problem.
- ATC are specially trained in assisting VFR-only pilots straying into IMC.
- Minor airspace busts don't lead to prosecution.
- Rich GA traditions since before WWII.
- PPL holders enjoy CPL privileges when flying ultralights!
- Very nice VFR ICAO charts, uncluttered and easy to read. One sheet covers the entire country. The aeronautical layer (that is, the entire chart minus the topo base) is freely available in PDF format from the site of Air Navigation Services.
- Lots of inexpensive lodging and restaurants.
