MASF
A point worth considering is the state of the aircraft and the accord to maintenance. MASF obviously has its supporters here and I would like to add myself to that group.
I have been there several times over the last couple of years and have flown their -181 G-MASF. This is a very well equipped aircraft with all the bells and whistles and in excellent condition.
If anyone has a complaint address it to the management, they do listen, and the ops manager who is around on Thursdays and Fridays makes a nice cup of tea.
And they do a very good T-shirt, subtle, not in your face, and it shows you fly.
As for learning to fly in a Tiger Moth, people who preach that probably recommend learning to drive in a Ford Model T.
