yourself, and ask to buy a nice, low-tech paper chart. The 1:500,000
scale visual charts have different names in different countries: in
the U.S., they're called "Sectionals", in Canada, they're called
"VNCs" (for "visual navigation charts"), and in the UK they
doubtlessly have yet another name. You should be able to get a chart
for around 10 pounds unless prices are much higher over there.
These charts go obsolete quite frequently, and so can't be used for real flying.
(I'm sure a lot of people keep old charts for general trip planning, etc.) But,
most pilots who do enough flying to keep their own set of charts will have
old ones that you ought to be able to get for free.
