I would suggest that all the local clubs, Fife, Dundee, Edinburgh, Perth, Cumbernauld and Inverness are all the same. There trying to run a business in a very competitive market in a recession. Because of this the least amount of money possible is spent on training aircraft. Just enough to keep them legal.
Sorry but not wise words at all. Total rubbish in fact. Visit the schools in question on this list. Count the aircraft. Count the (full time career) instructors. Look around the maintenance hangar(s). You will find the schools to be totally different in scale of operation, customer base and resources.

One of the schools on your list has been operating continuously from the same base for forty years. One of the others has only been operating for a few months.

If you are going to offer advice on this forum, why not do a little homework and research rather than just spout the first B****ks that comes off your keyboard.
