Hi,
I have decided to have a go at learning to fly (going to book a trial lesson in the next few weeks). I live in Durham near Newcastle, has anybody here got any experience of the flying school's up here? I am thinking about the club based at Newcastle
Northumbria Flying School - Home
Also, I guess at this time of the year it may not be a good idea to start for weather reasons, Should I leave it until next spring?
Also cost wise what is the best route? I posted in one of the other sections of the PPRUNE and someone said go to the USA as it would be cheaper, I guess that with it being cheaper there must be catch???
For me cost is a small factor that I have to bear in mind (baby on the way
) but not a show stopper, So if I could save a few hundred £££ by taking good advice then that would be an advantage.
One day I am hoping that this may be a route into a job within the aviation world, however that would be nice if it worked out that way and I understand that it's only a small chance. For the time being it is only a hobby.
Any thoughts/advice very welcome.
Thanks
David
