Hello one and all - the rules concerning ratings and the alphabet soup organisations confuses me greatly; this may not be the right place to ask but I see some expertise with the acronyms.
I an British but have lived outside the UK for well over a decade, during which time I learned to fly in the US. Prior to leaving the Uk my brother had a share in an airplane and an FAA licence - he was able to fly in the UK and in other countries in Europe with the permission of their aviation regulators.
Now here's my question - if I visit the UK this summer and would like to do some flying i.e solo (assuming someone will rent me an airplane!) jut what would I have to do in connection with licencing to be legal? Would it be different if the airplane were Uk or US registered?
