hi adam,
i am a low hours ppl also, and very much in the same boat as you, except i only get to slot lessons into one afternoon a weekend ,saturdays normaly busy but i like it that way as i think if you learn when quite then suddenly its busy and you have suddenly incressed your work load purley as your not used to it, saying that some schools are cheaper during the week, which is a bonus in a expensive hobby.
any way you said about doing 2 hour lessons, is good idea but make sure you have a break, say one hour before lunch have lunch then a hour after,just gives you time to recope and gather your compshure again.
i am just started in the circuit , and i cant believe how draining it can be,you dont feel to bad while doing them but once you stop close down you realise your drained.
sorry was my instruters advice about the break by the way,he gave lots of reasons,all made good sense.
any way hope that helps, havnt said the reason i posted was to actuly say i dont get to fly every weekend either and i dont think it realy has caused me problems or cost me any extra money yet,
and i also have changed school fro one that was on my door step within a mile to one 50 miles away, much better value for money in my opion, more aeroplanes no landing fees extra, bit of a drive but much happier there,
not much of a writter so hope that helps and makes a little scence to you.
cheers
chris
