I too was the victim of the aero club going mams up.. I`m currently waiting for my skills test at EGNC with Carlisle flight training who have a great (but not cheap) Archer. If you`re at the circuits stage Carlisle is really quiet and at seven quid a landing pretty cost effective too. worth a look in my book. and you don`t have to walk a marathon to pay your landing fee unlike teeside!!
JC IS the man though!!!
