Yeah, there does seem to have been one or two changes at the Flying School in the last few months - known the place for a while and while there has been a significant dent in morale recently, the standard of instruction is still very high, however would say that the personal touch that the place was deservedly known for may have been dimished somewhat. As for the FBO, can only re-iterate the stance of Ed Set - on my visits I have never found them to be anything but professional and friendly. The case of ATC being unhelpful, I think, is fairly rare, usually only really occurs on 16 days with increased chopper traffic and even then most ATCO's will attempt to get aircraft crossed over to the western side of th airfield where it's easier to get airborne from. Would be a shame to see the school fold, even with all the complaints about charges/ATC etc, it's probably one of the best flight training environments going about!
