Where at Humberside??

Hi, I live in Hull and have decided that I want to learn to fly. I have seen that at Humberside Airport, there are a few schools, Frank Morgan, Soloflight and Humberside Flying Club but don’t know which one to choose.

I have heard rumours that Soloflight is in financial difficulty and is closing down or is been sold off. Has anyone heard the same? I have had a trial lesson in a Warrior and a C 152 but preferred the Warrior due to its size. (It was a little ‘cosy’ in the 152).

Being new to all this, I wondered if anyone can advise me as to which school to go to. I have heard so many nightmare stories of schools closing down mid training and am a little worried, to say the least, of parting with large amounts of cash and not being able to complete training with whom I started and then having to start all over again elsewhere.

When I hopefully pass, I intend to tour the UK and Ireland by air with my family and thought that the warrior might be the best bet.

Any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated.
