You have too much time on your hands to remember and write so much in that detail
Don't I know it. I've even got to the bottom of the DIY list that Mrs Sky Wave has given me to do.
Hopefully there’s only a few more weeks of thumb twiddling.
Good luck with the Base Check

Hopefully it's better than 90%. Just waiting for a type rating start date.
I think one thing to bear in mind when comparing PPL prices is the airfield you train out of. My local airfields are Bournemouth and Southampton and being large airfields with full ATC, Navigation and Night facilities they charge more in landing fees and hence the price of a PPL package is greater. I could have done it cheaper if I'd of travelled to Old Sarum or Compton Abbas but the cost of the travelling would have probably outweighed the cheaper course price, and besides it’s nice learning to fly next to the big boys. I think anyone doing their PPL in between a full time job will probably end up picking from the best schools at their local airfield rather than travelling further a field.
