Hi all.
I'm looking to revalidate my old PPLA and embark on and aerobatic course.
Also, within the next month or so, look to purchase a share in an Aerobatic group.
I'm midlands based, nearest airfield being wellesbourne, Sewell, Coventry and Leicester....
Does anyone know of any shares about, I'm quite flexible with aircraft type.....

Regards to all....

Hi Guzzler.
Limited fixed wing experience. If memory serves I have around 200hrs.
All my experience is multi engine heli's...(North Sea)
Would like to progress to competitions.
Budget will be around 6-8k for a share...
Thanks

Speak to Paul or Simon at the Turweston Flying Club. Turweston Flying Club (http://www.turwestonflyingclub.org.uk)
They have a super T67 in the club and being ex RAF Fighter Pilots will give you great aerobatics training and confidence (with extras like formation flying on offer as well). The club is very active and (unusually) offers great support and ideas for post PPL pilots as well as ab-initio flight training.
Have fun!

There are lots of aerobatic aircraft at Leicester and I'm sure shares come up for sale. They also host an aerobatic competition:

It might be worth visiting on a sunny weekend
