That's a really interesting idea and a rather odd response from the flying school, if those were their words. To me, that is yet another example of the odd choices some UK flying schools seem to make. They can either:
think
I actually felt stupid when I was told that it wouldnt be possible, but I remember them saying that the PPL is usually done in a 2 seater cessna so it kind of makes sense in why it wouldn't be possible.
Perhaps you could run a diary here, and let us know how you get on during the winter.
That is actually a very good idea and hopefully will give an idea to students in winter flying. I will definately write a diary, this will obviously start in October when I start flying.
I think I will make another thread as the time gets nearer. Naming it some thing like " My training diary towards a PPL in the winter"
If you guys think I could name it any better, ideas are very welcome
