Hello,
I wonder if anyone is able to help me here… I’m heading over to Poland in August for a couple of weeks and would like to do a bit of flying while I’m there… preferably in some ‘Eastern’ aircraft… AN2 / Yak 12… Something like that.
Does anyone know of anywhere in Poland where I’ll be able to fly… I have a full PPL but dont mind flying with an instructor… I’m not too bothered about going solo but would like to have the left hand seat!
Many thanks

I’ve done a fair amount of flying in Poland, but always in my own aircraft. If your licence is a JAR PPL (or better), it is acceptable at face value for flight in Polish aircraft within Poland.
Most of the smaller fields have schools available, and prices are reasonable, but rising all the time.
VFR flying in Poland is fairly straightforward with the only barrier being a language one. Smaller fields often provide limited FIS in Polish, or occasionally fractured English.
