I don't know what is available over there, but no matter what you will need a trainer.

You need to find an instructor, or you will crash. This isn't like figuring out a computer or messing with a video game. You're going to have a lot of money in this and one mistake could cost you everything. You're going to crash without an instructor.

There has to be some guys around your area flying these. Find the local club and take a visit, they will all be glad to help. Someone else from your side of the pond will be able to help you a lot more than I can...

I know for a fact there are several clubs fairly near to you e.g. at Hanworth Air Park where I've flown once or twice. I'd be very surprised if someone at one of them wouldn't help. Anyway if you're thinking of flying a glow-powered plane you need somewhere where it's legal to fly it and some insurance. The rules for where you can fly and at what height etc around Heathrow (a very busy airport) are very restrictive.

BTW if you find PCs so easy try learning to use the Shift Key and a spell checker next. It would make your posts a lot easier to read .
