please please do not pay for your course in advance.....my son is being given excuse after excuse asto why he cannot fly....once they have your money,you will not recieve any priority at all.....
today i took my 16 yr old son to ravenair liverpool for a pre arranged solo flite,we arrived to be told it was too windy,fair enuff,safety first....
the instructor then said circuits were ok for today considering the wind....
i asked the instructor to his face if my son was definatly flying before i left the airport for my 1 hour trip home.....he assured me he was...
my son arrived home 4 hours later after a £40 taxi ride only to inform me that he did not fly at all because the instructor had a trial flight booked with some potential clients......
the short version is,this has gone on for 10 months and my son has only 29 hours clocked up.....we have had at least 50 lessons cancelled....
they are cowboys who abuse honest decent 16 yr old boys....

dont do it..
