NZ validation in UK
Hi guys
I've got a business trip to Christchurch coming up in the autumn , spring there I guess, and would like to get in some solo flying - from the NZ CAA it seems that it takes 5 days or so from getting the flight test done to getting your ticket, and I'm not going to be there for long enough.
So, are there any NZ qualified instructors knocking around the UK (preferably round Yorkshire way) that could do the test, sign off the relevant papers so I could send them off and get the paperwork sorted in advance?
Thanks for your help

I have a reverse query. On a recent holiday in NZ I had a NZ biennial in April with a NZ instructor to the NZ reqirements in a PA32-260. This is confirmed by a logbook entry. I now only hold a UK NPPL(SSEA) and wonder if this NZ biennial would cover me in terms of a skill test to revalidate my current UK licence valid until August 2004? I suspect not since my NZ instructor does not hold a JAR FI rating.
What a bureaucratic situation since the aircraft flies in exactly the same manner no matter where you are in the world. If you are competant in NZ then you are the same in the UK or indeed any other country. Ah well.

Whats the answer!
Can anyone answer Crowe's question:
Are there any NZ instructors that can do biennials in the UK?
I too have an NZ PPL and may require this when i return to Ireland - it would be handy to do it in the UK than in NZ!!
Cheers
