Rather annoyingly in my case I'm having to put it all on hold as I can't currently afford to do as much flying as I would need to do to get back up to test standard after having lost so much booked lesson time to bad weather the last few years.
Hopefully when my financial situation picks up I'll be able to start over - as I'm sure I'll miss flying dreadfully.

Get a new workshop (the old one went with the house and job that I no longer have 
)
Start building my next aeroplane.
Fly something (anything) to keep my hand in.
Attend the LAA rally at least, and hopefully by air.

- Pass all eight CPL exams
- Renew IMC, which has lapsed for a year
- Get the 300 nm cross country under my belt
- Get some serious hours on the Chipmunk
- Renew Class 1 before I end up having to do another initial
Good for starters

Nothing too major but flying from Lands End to John O' Groats up one coast and down the other. A pal did it on a push bike that he bought for a fiver and slept in pub gardens all the way. Sounds like a plan.

Finish the PPL; do some intensive hour-building in the 'States; do the Night & IMC; start the ATPLs; renew the Class 1 Med.
Fancy visiting a few places once I have my license, e.g. Carlisle, the Western Isles, the Highlands.
How to fund all that? Not a clue. Have been putting away £££ for the hour-building and the ATPLs but as for the rest, smeg knows.
