Hi All,
Ive recently returned to my homeland after 12 years away on the beautiful island on New Zealand
I was looking into starting my PPL over there, but when we decided to sell and and move here, that was all put on the back burner (I only done 1 trial flight in a Robin 2120 out of North Shore)
Id basically love to be a commercial pilot, but im all too aware of costs involved in making that possible
I have a kid, and soon to be mortgage etc (once we get our feet on the ground)...only been back a month, although ive started working already.
Taking all this into account, I feel just doing it for fun to start with is the way to go....and I am looking at the NPPL in a 3 axis fixed wing microlight
Mostly due to the fact its cheaper, and I understand can be upgraded fairly easy in the future to standard PPL....then only CPL etc if that materialises?
Now, where to train? I am based in Livingston, West Lothian.
I understand the Edinburgh Flying club has just recently closed its doors?
1 of the options im looking at are:
based out of Perth
Fixed Wing flight training Scotland - Small Plane Flights
Or would you recommend just doing the EASA PPL?
Also based out of Perth
Perth
I wont be starting properly for a while yet (until partner finds job etc) but do plan to take a few fun flight over next few months
Just looking for any advice for anyone around the central belt of Scotland really...
Thanks
Cal
