Ive just joined Slolent Flight and they are currently operating from Lower Upham just outside Eastleigh in Southampton. Solent are normally based at Lee on Solent but due to essential work (removing pipe bombs!!!) they relocated temporarily to Lower Upham.
Andrew Temple, the owner, has been braking his back to try and keep all the regulars and new customers happy and ensure that training goes on as normal. This has resulted in Andy providing ferry flights to Bembridge so the lessons can commence.
I dont know all the ins and outs but Andrew has been waiting to get back to Lee for some time.
My advice is keep trying to get a hold of Andy if you want a lesson or continue your PPL. The FI's are great, the take off from Lower Upham is quite exciting and the school is really welcoming. I got a 45 minute post flight breifing from one FI which was really helpfull.
Good luck.
