Hi All, classic long time reader first writer post...
I recently obtained my PPL license at Elstree. I, however, live and work in Worcester. Whilst learning I was happy to travel back for lessons as I liked the school and my instructor, and I felt that consistency was important.
Now I am qualified, it seems a little bit daft to keep doing this, especially with the up-coming airspace restrictions for the Olympics and added cost of fuel for the car.
So... I have probably over done the background but my question is - Are there any airfields near Worcester that offer a similar atmosphere to Elstree?
Having done a quick search: The forum throws up a thread for Worcester (
Best airfield for Worcester [Archive] - PPRuNe Forums) but was posted back in 2006 - any new information?
And a quick google: It seems that Gloucester appears alot, but I would prefer a smaller GA field and one a little closer.
Sorry for the length of post for what should be a simple question... I talk to much.
