Learning to Fly in Norfolk

Hi All,

I've been lurking around the forums here for a while, there seems to be a good deal of information and lively comment!

At the grand old age of 33, I have decided that I'm going to start flying lessons next year once we're out of the winter proper (e.g. April / May). I have a tiny amount of experience - a bit of cadet flying years ago and a relatively recent 1 hour trial lesson out of Old Buckenham.

Now the question is, where should I learn to fly... Somewhere based at Norwich Airport would be convient (I live in central Norwich) and the R/T would be much busier (something I think would be good experience), or should I go to one of the smaller airfields (Old Buckenham for instance) that may provide other benefits?

I would love to hear any suggestions, personal experiences / recommendations for flying tuition in Norfolk as if I'm spending around £6K I want to make sure I get the best experience and have the best time possible.

Thanks for your help!
