QDM - really sorry that you had that experience. A note for others heading for Megeve - Aeroclub de Megeve is, well an aeroclub. Aeroclubs in France are members clubs and as such they can have a very different 'feel' to a flying school with 'customers' There are two organisations at Megeve, the aeroclub de Megeve and Aerocime. Aerocime is the commercial company (owned by Jacques I beliueve), they do the tourist flights. The aeroclub does the training.
QDM, did you join the club?
