Starting PPL: Aerodromes & Aircraft
Good afternoon all,
I'm looking into starting my PPL in the not too distant future. I've narrowed down to 3 airfields where I would carry out my training. I've yet to have an informal chat at these airfields / clubs yet but was wondering if anyone here has had any experiences of visiting/PPL training themselves.
Rougham airfield near Bury St.Esmunds. Not too far from me and I routinely drive past / work near this airfield which has prompted me to get moving onto making a start!
Crowfield Airfield outside of Ipswich. Seems to be a bit of a hidden gem. The closest airfield to where I live.
And Clacton airfield. Chosen because I logged a few hours here some 10 or so years ago
As for aircraft, going what's available at these clubs, a C152 Which I've had some time in previously, or a HR200. I've heard the C152 is better for training because of the high wing being helpful with navigation, but any opinions on either as far as training goes?
Any input much appreciated!
Lewis.
