    I'm also very interested in this. I think the adventure Ireland site looks better but I dunno.
    The midland one says:
    "To fly legally you must apply to the IAA for an exemption after you have completed your training at a school that is registered by the authority. ( We are the only school in Ireland at present that has authority to instruct students in this activity)"
    Does this mean that the adventure place doesn't leave you with a legal qualification?

    I'm well up for doing this but maybe april/may. Plus I'm pushing on the max weight limit of 120kg I was 117kg a few months ago but would imagine I'm down a bit since. I'm not fat I'm just big boned and tall.
