Hello,
Because of Brexit, I need to build around 10h of ME IFR PIC time, to convert my UK ICAO IR to an EASA IR.
Can anyone advise on the most cost-effective way of doing this in the Oxford area? Don’t mind driving for an hour (or two) if that gets me a much better deal.
All of my ME experience is in DA42, and I am very current on it. I have experience in “3-levered” complex aircraft: Piper PA28R Arrow.
I have asked the DA42 operators in the area but their aircraft are not available. DA42s also tend to be expensive. I am therefore considering other MEP options to build the hours I need.
Have you tried twinstar4hire ?
SueAir have two DA42 at Gloucester
SueAir (2*DA42) & Blackbushes (2*Beech), I doubt there are any MEP rentals in UK other than these two
Most ATOs would like their MEP to stay in the visual circuit (maybe no TXP or ModeS ?)
