More like $200 every 3 years and it may save your life! france does not recognise Aussie quals!!
does anyone know if you can still get a motorglider endorsement on a PPL and would this cover you O/S?

( anyway that's the way it is in Europe) It is a very thorough medical with a large number of older pilots failing. If you want to fly in Europe , France is the best place. Nicest to fly and relatively easy for UK and Aussie pilots. I know of 2 airfields that help the most, Serres with Klaus Ollman and Sisteron-Vaumeilh. http://www.aircross.co.uk/sisteron/FlyFrance.htm European glider pilots would love to have to ozzie way license instead of vast amounts of red tape. For the few pilots that go overseas ( like me) it will be easier but I think the GFA should think twice, or rather 10 times before going to that system.
