Thumbs up

On the plus side WW's got a nice big flight planning room with everything you need, an Ops room with very friendly staff, A/G radio that act like A/G and not Heathrow Tower , three long/wide grass runways, lots of different aircraft, excellent grub & bar.

On the minus side the bumpy runway and taxiway means that you have to take care, and the taxi to/from the ruwway to parking can take several minutes. The circuits do require some care due to noise abatement, but an instructor will fly in your aircraft for no charge to make sure you know what the circuits are.

In any case it's worth a visit...
