Surely this is the difference between a "club" and a "school".
I'm currently doing some training with a school, I turn up, pre-flight the aeroplane, fly with an instructor wearing a uniform, park it at the end, and pay.
I also am a longstanding member of a true flying club - I help out with jobs around the airfield, take time to introduce members, even occasionally get a spade out and fill in the rabbit holes in the runway.
Strangely enough, the first costs a shedload more money, whilst the latter is a lot more fun in the end, I have a lot more friends there, and money notwithstanding I'll stay with them far far longer. But we pretty much all still need a flying school occasionally.
