Human Performance and Aviation Law are a piece of piss - do em first!!! Reckon you will love the meteorology section, just a guess as know your fascination with science and nature! By the way, feckin polar bears CAN swim….. Thats the only nature interest i have had lately. Still blown away by this. All brought about cos of a TOTALLY random conversation with Gunther senior who complained that “showing polar bears drowning on the news cos of global warming was ‘un-chrismassy’” Needless to say i was up for hours researching. NEVERTHELESS - do the ppl or atleast an intro flight - it will be amazing. Reckon you will love it ! Remember - watch out for “the hun in the sun” - just kidding. I love the germanians.

Go for a Piper instead, Mate. Cheaper with all the options and smoother flying too.

Of course, you could go whole hog if you win the lottery and go for a Gulfstream jet but then you’re talking extra 0’s on the end !

Cheers for the info re LASIK and flying. I’m thinking of taking the trial intro flight (around 2k) … see if I like it or if I sheeeeet myself!

Will save my cash for the Shaky Cessna.

Avoid eye surgery if you want a PPL. It’ll figure against you massively for any medical requirements and many quacks will refuse you the medical. Stick with specs or contacts.

All the basic flight rules and classes are easy enough if you pay attention and have a decent instructor. Just take your time and study the books and you can’t go wrong (make sure you focus on the radio telephony, air law and meteorology parts too!).

Not sure where I was told this but there is a bell ringing when you mention LASIK and pilot’s licence in the same sentence, like its not allowed.

Of course I might just be talking rot and dreamt the whole thing, who knows!!!
