I learned at Fulll Sutton. The welcome from Cas is what you get from everyone. You will have seen that the facilities are basic, but provide all you need. School aircraft are fine, many shareoplanes also there.

The is seldom any waiting to take off after engine start, so no wasted lesson time. Rates are the best around, instruction first class and you won't get messed around by having different instructors each lesson. I got my licence in 45.3 hours spread over 15 months and later did my night qual there (used Doncaster and Full Sutton. If you can land at night at Full Sutton you can land anywhere)

Adam taught me, very good in the air and in the classroom. He offers fast track lessons too (google "thegreatcircle").

The airfield is in Class G airspace, you get ATC from RAF Lynton on Ouse in the week and Humberside at weekends.

It is a grass runway which makes you feel like a pioneer aviator, and when you go to tarmac places it seems too easy with all them extra runway markings to help.

Very nice scenery in the area too, and the coast is 15 minutes away.
