EC,
I realise the course offered by MulitiFlight is a modular one, and I suppose I should have expanded on that point:
"Would it be better to do a modular course followed by some hours building and an Instructers Rating in the current aviation climate?" - savings v's school reputation....
However I believe this has been debated in numerous threads, I was just inquiring if Tweetypie had considered it.
As for "weather on top of a hill in Leeds" (accompanied by a more complex airspace), sounds quite challenging mate
Out of interest, which option did you choose, and would you recommend it? As many opinions as proffered are very welcome when trying to make such an important decision!
