At Cumbernauld there are 2 schools and one flying club. Cumbernauld Flying school, Flight Academy and Leading Edge.

I'm CFI at Leading Edge so I won't go to much further into it lest I be accused of advertising.

One thing though, we don't offer packages since we encourage people to NOT pay upfront. If you are desperate to, then fine, but otherwise I personally don't think the risk is worth taking. We aren't going to go out of business but there are so many horror stories that we don't feel the practise should be encouraged.

Packages also only ever cover the bare minimum and since the vast majority take longer (especially if flying once a week) than that. A package becomes irrelevant.

PM if you would like any other details.
