Take all the advice above. Unfortunately there are some nobs scattered here and there who need to be knocked of there high horses.
Im 26 and have a PPL + ratings etc, and last year I landed at an airfield, paid my fees, and I still had some old nob looking down at me as if Im scum. So I went and something to eat in there club house as all flying visitors are very welcome, so they say. And another bloke on his high horse questioned the bar maid if I was allowed in there or not. Well as far as Im concerned these old fashioned
pr**ks have no place in todays aviation, and in the end they will lose out. So even after you qualify and get older and wiser you still come across them
Good luck
Mint
