oh, and another place to look: UK. You can
fly a G- registered aircraft anywhere with a
FAA certificate (once checked out that is, as
it would be any other place) -- which is not
necessarily the case in other countries...

Hi SWK,

If renting an aircraft in France gives you too much trouble maybe look
a bit further north.
From Paris it is about a 1.5~2 hour drive to Belgium.
Here is a website with aeroclubs in Belgium:

I think you can best try Kortrijk first.

If you really do not mind driving go further north for 2 more hours and
you are in The Netherlands.
We have some schools that also rent out aircraft.

Good luck,
Kees
