I've been looking to start my PPL at Leeds, I live less than a mile from the airport so its more than ideal, and yes the weather up here can be pretty grim.
Is it really as bad as "booked up until next year"!!?? I work very close to the airport, and can't say I've seen the flying school busy. Lots of multiflight aircraft parked on the apron and not that much activity.
Other people have also mentioned "going elsewhere". What other options can anyone recommend?
Sorry Kippax I've gone off topic a bit there haven't I.
