Just had a friend of mine come back from Vegas. He rented a Turbo Arrow from Las Vegas North and flew out to Canyon West. Nice trip, but I've only done it as a paying punter. Process seemed simple enough - think he had his UK licence validated as a FAA PPL and a check ride with one of the local FI's, then offski. He seemed to enjoy himself. Just don't expect to be able to whizz off down the canyon though - I think there are some pretty strict regs regarding flying inside the National Park area and you really don't want to upset the locals (Nellis AFB just a stone's throw away with some pretty serious hardware and lots of it!). Well worth a bash though, enjoy.
