A PPL for £3800????
Been visiting various clubs and getting prices for doing my PPL. Most clubs are quoting around £7500 to do my ppl. Some have given me a fairly heavy sell. Trying to decide as to whether to do my NPPL or JAR PPL.
Went to a small airfield called Hinton in the Hedges today. They have offered to do a JAR PPL for £3800. Im told that they do it cheaper by doing the training in a Grob 109 and a Dimona and I will get my Motorglider JAR TMG PPL and then do a conversion to the Cessnas, Tomahawks or PA28. Is this a sensible route to do a PPL? It seems too cheap.
Has anybody ever trained there? I did ask some of the students there and they seemed really happy.
The instructors seemed really nice and the aircraft looked tidy. I was left rather confused though as they wont take my money upfront and say I just pay for each lesson. All the other schools have asked me to pay for the whole course.
Also looked at Billins at Cranfield- anyone trained there??? What about Bonus- they were al ot more expensive- do I get better training if I pay more????
