I'm aiming at getting seaplane training in Canada this summer.

I then propose to amuse myself by writing to the CAA to find out what I have to do to get it confirmed as a UK rating of some sort.

(Someone told me the other day that he'd got his seaplane rating, rather a long time ago, in the UK. I expressed disbelief, on the grounds that flying training must be conducted from a licensed airfield, and we don't have any licensed water in the UK. He claimed that they licensed a bit of the Solent specially for him for a weekend.)
