Hey
rich49 I've been thinking about this for a while too. What university are you thinking of going to? I'm off to Hertfordshire to do Aerospace this september, and they've allowed time for me to sit my exams (ground school for PPL) and do some flying (that counts) in each year I'm there. Don't think it's through the UAS scheme but thats available also I guess. They've provided student rates for the flying etc...and it sounds pretty good to me.
The downside is, that if it is through the UAS, then you get your name written down secretly on the reserve list for RAF fighter pilots
. I prefer to stay civilian - easier fun.
