Hi, sorry if this has been answered i havent read all the post's...
To anyone that has their PPL, do you know if the exams are the same as the European CAA PPL..I know Airlaw would be different as that would take in for local issues but what about the rest??? Reason I ask is I had completed all my ground school books and did most of the exams minus Navigation and Flight Performance, had a few hours in the log book then had to emigrate with the wife. Would really like to get the licence sorted. Sadly the 24 month period for exam entitlement has just elapsed so would have to retake the whole lot

I've emailed Briko a few times with no replies, I brought over all my study books from the UK inc Pratt, Thom, Confuser ETC but is there a local set of training manuals that you guys use??? or is it mainly class room based lessons that you do, then you take the test when your ready??? I did all my exams self study and to be honest most was boring as hell!!!!! wish i did a ground school with a few other guys...The real problem with the UK CAA system is they are only really interested in Pliots that want to go on and do the ATPL exams not much use for the weekend warrior!!!!!!

I think if i went home now i would just finish my gliders licence 75% cheaper and is real good fun..2000ft in a few seconds from a winch launch!!!!...Or would head to the US and do the FFA PPL like a few friends of mine

Any info would be great.
