Good points IO540 ... and there's another one which I've never experienced in practice but have heard rumours about:

Say you've paid up front, and just before your lesson a punter walks in off the street waving £50 notes and wanting a "trial lesson". Does the school:

(1) tell the punter to piss off, losing this extra money, and give you your scheduled lesson

or:

(2) cancel your lesson, on the grounds that you've already paid, take the additional money from the punter, and give the punter your aircraft and your instructor

?
