Ab Initio Training
Yes you can as long as the aircaft has a valid ' Certificate of Release to Service'. Such a certificate can only be issued by a licenced engineer following an inspection. NO pilot maintenance may be carried out while your training takes place.
Further, you may only train for a licence within a Registered Training Facility (RTF) from a licenced aerodrome, so you would have to get a Flying club who is a RTF to agree.
Insurance is a legal requirement for all aeroplanes - does the insurance policy allow ab-initio training. If not there is likely to be an additional cost to the premium!
