On the one occasion I've flown with "Mr Teddy's" instructor, Andy, (just on a Club currency check) I found him very easy to get on with - I'd better say that, as he was reasonably complimentary about my flying!

What a pity the producers didn't want to focus on those of us who already have a PPL (I was approached by the production lady one day, and once it became clear that I already have a PPL she lost interest in me!!).

The programme could have covered the fun you can have once you've got your licence, as well as the fun (?!?) you can have getting it - we could have then showed the nice new aeroplanes on the fleet rather than just the 152's.

I suppose if they wanted to do a series, this all might have happened - pity!
