A Bit of PPL Information
Hi all,
After a fair bit of deliberating and fretting as to whether I can give up work and afford to go and apply for an Integrated Course, I have decided at this stage I simply cannot.
I'm therefore about to embark on training for my PPL, before then hopefully being accepted on one of the main player's modular courses. Its going to take longer I know, but sadly - like many on here - there is a mortgage and all sorts to pay and to suddenly up sticks would be a bit unfair on the other half.
I'm in the Manchester area, and have seen Manchester School of Flying (MSF) and Lancs Aero Club at Barton as the two main local instructors. Does anyone have any info on these boys, other than the spiel on their websites? Any good or bad rumours about the organisations? Any recommedations from anyone? Any other good North West based suppliers?
Costs seem about the same. MSF - at least on the face of things - seem a bit more professional, but Barton will not have the inherent landing fees or delays of a major international airport. The idea is to get as much instruction and flying in as possible, so perhaps Barton would be a better option.
Any info at all gratefully recieved!
Cheers
Mark
