I'm at bournemouth flying club - membership is currently free until the new software goes live (maybe this will be Oct/Nov) Once the software is live membership will be £95 per year. Only A/C hired from there include landing fees / parking etc regardless of your membership status.

Coffee / Soup & even the water is free (this might make all the difference!)

someone already posted a link but I thought I'd explain the 'frequent flyer' option...

You are looking at 50 hours - frequent flyer is £1250 to join then it's £77 per hour (wet & including landings). This means you could fly 50 hours in a PA28 for as little as £102 per hour (saving £250), but if you fly more you save more.

There are 8 other a/c types to fly as well (all included on the frequent flyer rate) and of course you can take the option of night flying at Bournemouth, not available elsewhere in the local area - given the time of year.
