£90/h for Warrior or Arrow. must do all 100 hours wuith school. buying in 10 hour blocks.
If you're paying upfront for hours - go elsewhere.

cannot book aircraft. off peak hours offered first, mornings and late afternoons mid week, first there first to fly. if PPL lesson or gift voucher lesson turns up at school, they get the aircraft, not the hour builder.
You are most certainly not a valued customer here - at my club at least, a considerable portion of flyers are PPL lessons/gift vouchers.

minimum flying time 16hours a month. if account is ever empty, all flying charged at normal rate £129p/h.
Again, give the amount of money you're spending, this is ridiculous.

In summary - this sounds like a very poor deal to me, especially not being able to book aircraft when you want & paying upfront, then getting penalised for not having money in the bank at any given point!
