A British aircraft that we could all afford...

Well just sell your house (downsize to a caravan perhaps)

Its all on an ultra light licence, so the course can be just a week and a fraction of a PPL, depending upon your ability and determination.

Take a look at the link below;-

Dreams are important, don't you think?

Best regards

There's no such thing as an ultralight licence - it's an NPPL.  That'll take 32 hours.

Unless you're already familiar with flying, and given the UK weather, it'd be quite an ask to do it in a week.

6.4 Hours a day isn't possible (or particularly wise/comfortable) - not for a full week.  And you've not covered the theory requirements.

Just saying....

Looks like a rehash of a Long-Ez, which you can buy (although rarely) for around 20-30k.  I'd rather have Burt's!

I'd rather go for a flight in Burt's too.
 
I mean the one that'll to take me to low Earth orbit.
