Just thought I'd have my 2 pennies worth..
I've flown at lots of different places in gliders and light aeroplanes (and I'm currently doing ATPL theory). I'll be going to Leeds for a while when the time comes..
Sherburn, however, is one of the nicest and most well run clubs that I have been to, and, regardless of what happens with my flying career, I'll probably remain a member for the rest of my life.
There are lots of friendly people (its rare to sit in the clubhouse without someone striking up a conversation), the fleet of aeroplanes is second to none (fully IFR equipped PA28 fleet) and the food is great!
It's a nice place to hours build and I consider myself lucky to live close enough to fly there!
All clubs have their ups and downs, but go there and see - I think you'll be impressed....
P.S. Even though this looks like a hard sell, I'm just a satisfied club member - not on the committee!!!!
Regards all!!!
