Hi, im interested to know what made you choose our neck of the woods

Im learning at Monewden Airfield (http://www.horizonflying.com) which is a small grass strip just to the north of Ipswich. Accessibiliy probably isnt the best, its a good 20 minute drive out into the sticks from my house, probably about 30-35 minutes from the town centre, but I have seen taxi advertisements inside the clubhouse so im sure somebody would pick you up

As far as I know fuel is 100LL though I cant remember the price off the top of my head. Theres plenty of parking spots available for overnighting, and I cant imagine its that expensive. Circuits into Monewden are at 1000ft.

Im sorry I cant be really precise but I dont want to give you wrong information while im only learning myself!!

The CFI Bill Stitt is a brilliant guy and can answer any of your questions - his mobile number is on the website above.

Best of luck!! I hope you enjoy Ipswich
