elstree hours

sorry drauk for slow reply, basically I spoke to guys who hire out aircrafts at Elstree and they told me that people who completed PPL at ELstree normally have something like 80/90 hours in their logbook by the time they get license. Circuits can get very busy and for a new pilot its a bit tough as area is surrounded by controlled airspaces + gliding club to the north-west of the airfield. Runway is short and not very flat to say the least. Nice airfield but in my humble opinion its a bit unfair on new PPL starter. Sorry if I am wrong.
