Redsnail - I have had one trial lesson and absolutely loved it, however with only being able to work part time and being on minimum wage i haven't been able to extend my experiences.
clanger32 - I can imagine that it's a fantastic sight. However with working the only job i have been able to get part time along side my college work is a lifeguard and this is only on minimum wage so even if i extended my hours once i had finished college the amount of money i would be earning would be minimal amounts which would be eaten by the costs of flight training.
Still, thanks again for the advice, much appreciated
