Sheffield to ......

Hi guys /Gals,

Im currently training with Sheffield City Air school for my PPL and so far so good. There all nice people and the level of comfort with my instructor is endless.

When i land i always want to get back up straight away.

Anyway, weather up here these days is pretty bad. The last couple of dates ive had booked have been cancelled. Now obviously this is nobodies fault however im sure you all remember a time of excitement and impatience when doing your training.

Im going to be in Tunbridge Wells for the next couple of weeks (Visiting the Otherhalf), im looking for Flying schools in and around the area-ish (I say ish as i dont mind driving), that can take me on for a couple of lessons every day and get me to atleast solo.

Im currently only on 5 hours, however im told having no problems with these earlier lessons.
If anyone can give me a recommendation on good flying schools with asphalt runway?

I simply want o avoid the bad weather up here for a while.
I have spoken to EFG flying school however there priced considerably higher than most while also charging £16.50 for landing ONTOP of the hourly rate.
They sound a good bunch of people but that kind of put me off.

Any help would be great thanks in advance.

Tricky
