UK medical requirements for US glider pilots...
Hi Marc
I have flown at Lasham and Nympsfield on several occasions
under instruction and as PIC and was never asked for
medical info of any kind.
Most clubs will ask you to pay a daily membership (usually
ridiculously cheap) but you need to provide the name
of your host club in the states- I used Hollister Gliding
Club but Valley Soaring Assn would do fine too.
Give my regards to Cambridge - Try and get round Kings
College if term hasnt started yet - worth the visit.
Kind Regards

I'll be in the UK (Cambridge) in late September for
a conference, and am
thinking about heading over there early for some flying.
I have a US
PPL Glider, but not a US medical, which is not required
for gliders.
Will I need a US or UK medical validation to fly solo
in the UK? Any
other formal requirements (licensing or otherwise),
other than the
obvious check ride requirements wherever I end up?
Thanks,
Marc
