In general terms, there's a lot to be said for buying a share anyhow. Firstly you get more aeroplane for your money, secondly you are sharing the group with people who have more experience and you can learn from.

I suppose I could start a G-reg PFA Pitts group in Ireland... but not for a year or two.

Darth Bovine, I'm in Dublin.

I wonder how many would be interested in a group based around an S1D or S1S? They'd need a few hours taildragger time, aeros training (AOPA certificate maybe) and a few hours dual in an S2A/B/C with an instructor. Like I said, it'd be a year or two yet.

You fly outta Weston? Flew in there once.. was dissapointed they didn't have Guinness! In fact, IIRC they had no beer!!

Dublin would probably be a stretch for me to travel to a group, unless my circumstances changed.
