UK Balloon Private Pilot Licence

What is the best way, and how much does it cost to get a UK PPL for Hot Air balloons?

Contact the following;

British Balloon & Airship Club
PO Box 1006
Birmingham
B5 5RT

Telephone 0121 643 3224

They should be able to provide all info you need including training venues.

Oh and nearly forgot,,,,please pass over Luke Davies home on a very sunny/windless day and cast a very large shadow for a few hours when he is sunbathing! (see Luke Davies posting) we will also be able to identify the waypoint of Luke Davies home by your large roundabout in the sky!.

Brietling have actually sponsored a student for a complete PPL(B) last year, - watch the press and see if they do it again this year.
