Notice - '£95 hours are a rip-off' - nonsens. It depends on the ac, and bear in mind that most clubs are trying to keep rates down AND charge a membership fee to cover some of the fixed costs.

THAT is why TLs are more expensive per hr than the equivalent rate for club members. I would say £95 for an hour is excellent value (particularly if it includes the landing fee and instructors fee). A good part of that will also be to cover the extra insurance costs involved with TLs, and if the TLs are done properly there will be about 30mins of ground school beforehand.

Enjoy it, and then keep coming back for more !!
