Berkut - Coulda sworn that ultralights were an endorsement as opposed to a simple check flight on type if you have a PPL. Indeed you're right - just requires the appropriate check flight. Having only flown 152/172, it's been ages since I've even thought about what else the PPL covers. That being the case, yeah, I'd have a look at the possibilty of ultralight usage. Cheaper, plus the slower airspeeds would make it easier for observation. That being said, $110/hr for a C172 is not all that bad.

And OP, if you've had no issues with using the radios up there, and the aircraft owner is cool with it, then have at 'er.
