Thanks for all the replies
Firstly, probably shoud clarify the name thing, its pronounced owen and is probably the worst spelling in the world!
Ive already had a trial flight and loved it, but the money is really the big issue. Suppose it would be fair to say that f/w is more practical for a-b stuff, but in my lifetime i won't be doing a great deal of that stuff (my airport isnt all that local), so im really looking to get the best flying experience for the dosh.
Cheers
Eoin (Owen)
