Hello all,
Just reading your posts and attempting to read between lines. I'm very interested in doing my IR at SFC on the DA42. Currently a MEP and CPL holder. Is Southend the aerodreome they use normally for ILS and NDB approach prctice? I am slightly worried that the airfield itself has only a VOR. (Only is the wrong word, as that's excellent, but you know what I mean.) I'm also looking at Bournemouth which has the attraction of NDB and ILS, and have spent last month scratching my head as to where to go. The quote of 8-10 weeks to do IR at SFC is the longest out of anybody. Oversubscribed?? Are most IR students happy? Where does test take place. Presumably A/C has be positionned. IMMENSELY GRATEFUL for answers.
