Captain Stable, many thanks for your very informed and interesting reply.
It's given me food for thought, that's for sure.
You are indeed very correct, more than 75% have been weather related cancellations - too windy, cloud cover below minimums, heavy rain, etc.
Very little has been to do with instructor or aircraft non-availability.
I'd give my instructor 100% for professionalism - he's the only instructor there that I have had a ground briefing with before flying, he's very thorough and teaches me the fundamentals of why - not just how. I couldn't praise him enough. I don't think I'm a natural (wish I was
) although I did hear one instructor say I was a natural stick, (whatever that means).
Maybe I will give it more time and stay with the club. The weather is utterly crap, but I'm hoping to emigrate to Oz in a year or two - so that might fix that
Thanks again Captain - it's good to get a second opinion on things like this.
