Hi, Avrodamo (North Yorkshire was always a better force!
)
One avenue you may consider -
An accountant may give you sound advice on setting up as self-employed, offsetting aviation costs against expenses, and particularly getting VAT registered on a voluntary basis to reclaim VAT.
But you'd need to demonstrate to the VAT man that you were running (or hoping to run) a business (even training costs count).
Just an idea.
Cheers
