Yeah well. I've not got a real beef about it other than being surprised that there are as many muppets in the air as on the road. I just thought that a PPL being relatively harder to obtain than a Driving Licence would lead to a "better standard of driving"! . .. .I have to say that the guys in the Tower at Lydd are pretty good though. For a novice student like myself it's reassuring to hear the laid back but switched on voices coming through my headset - helps me to relax a bit anyway.
