Which Flying Club??

[bolty_1000]

All,

Can anyone recommend a good flying club to join in South London. I am currently looking at Biggin Hill and the Clubs there. Does anyone have any recommendations at Biggin or any other nearby airfield?

Thanks

Redhill is a cheaper base than Biggin. Three grass runways, not ideal in winter but well kept the rest of the year.
CubAir is the "clubyest" of the three flying clubs.

I fly from Redhill and learned through Cubair. The club is very friendly and has some very good instructors. The aeroplanes are well maintained and having got your PPL you can stay with Cubair and convert to taildraggers and do aeros as well.

The only downside are the runways which do get closed at times during the winter. However, the taxiway (which is tarmac) can be used, and it certainly hones your skills as it's rather banana shaped!

I haven't checked lately but I think that Cubair are the cheapest at Redhill.

Cricket.

PS - PM me if you want any other info.

It's a bit far perhaps, but Shoreham is superb GA airfield with lots of clubs.

Worth a day out.
