Liverpool GA
I've flown with most of the clubs at Liverpool over the past 15 years (not been to Merseyflight though) as well as a short stint at LAC @ Barton (culminated when I wanted to do my Night and IMC). I have flown with some great instructors in all of those clubs (many of which went on successfully into airline jobs) and a couple of poor (disinterested) ones (I just asked to change at the time if it wasn't right). Last Saturday I went down to Lomac to recommence flying after an 18 month break and I have to say I was overwhelmed by the warmth and sincerity of the welcome from Rod, Neil, Paul and Jimmy et al at the new clubhouse. One thing to think about is what to do after you get the PPL.... as such I need a club which is just that rather than a flying school who possibly lose interest in you after you qualify. Good luck with your PPL B2V. Mike
