Ince is a great place to Learn, Say Hi to Karl for me.
Great Club, very friendly and a lovely grass airfield with 3 runways, I call in when I do some of the trips across the UK from Ireland.

RE: Type of Flex to buy; all depends on your circumstances, what you want to do, how much you want to spend... They range from £2500 up to £45000 and everywhere in between. Best thing to do is to take a trip with the fellas at Ince and ask questions of all the lads flying there. There is now Rotax 912 powered aircraft for 10K upwards. see Aircraft for sale for some of the planes for sale.

The instructors at Ince can give you the low down on what you have to do regarding licensing... talk to them about it.

Good experiences....... Sure there is, you will have one hell of a grin when you fly a flex, a motorbike of the skies !

Asking questions on www.MicrolightForum.com will probably result in more knowledgeable responses as it is a dedicated microlight forum... actually quite a few of the Ince Pilots on that particular forum.

Good luck with it and let us know how you get on.

Jon
