Well Miss Bigglesworth

There's about 7 clubs at Shoreham at the last count, all competing like mad and leaving no margin for anyone.

1st Rule: Pay no money up-front!

You will have different needs depending on whether you already have a PPL or are learning. Some have a great team of instructors, some have a great clubhouse. Most have a mixture. Few have a good programme for qualified PPLs. Its courses for horses.

I have worked for some of them and now work elsewhere so I can now look on from a respectable distance. I can give you some more detailed info if you Email me.

Good luck, but don't worry about the ATC they are a crack team. Its just with only one frequency in use at a busy weekend and 7 clubs trying to get their fleet airbourne that things get a bit tense!
