New here! Where to train for ppl
Hey all
My name is kev! New here but been reading forum alot so been lurking a while! Seems to be the most active forum for ppl around!
So looking to start ppl next year once cash is saved! Had a flying experience back in September at bournemouth flying club and loved it! Since then been back for learn to fly presentation which I'd read up on most so no the requirements and costs!
Have few questions to pose to you guys please?
First off where is best to do the ppl? Looking at bfc as liked the guys there also flying time aviation at shoreham as Imin portsmouth so will need to travel! Anyone here trained with them?
Secondly what best aircraft to learn in? Bfc seem to push you towards the robin and shoreham and most others say the pa28? My experience was in a da40 but seems they are dearer again!
Lastly (sox did only say a few) my main concern with the ppl is the theory! Never been great at studying and passing exams so wanted to no how much self study is needed per exam? Also is it true what they say if you have passed driving test you should be fine with the ppl?
Thanks for your help! Looking forward to spending more time on here! If I can pass the ppl will be mainly a hobby so not a career!
Cheers
Kev
