Hi Guys,
Basically I am hoping to start my EASA-PPL course very soon. I am 15 years old and i live in uk (Berkshire) and my chosen flying club is
'West London Aero Club'
Aircraft Rates - West London Aero Club and they charge £8126.00 (upront normally) However they offered us that we can pay it in 2 months so month '1' 4k and so on. So as my dad cant afford to get that much amount of money in very little time also i've been told the number one rule is to never pay a flying club upfront., So we asked them whether it is payable within a period of 12 months and that would workout £677.00 a month. And for some reason they declined, they are losing valuable passionate customers, i mean any business minded company will never decline that offer, then we also asked them for an alternative. E.g. the whole sum payable withing 4 months. So 2k, 2k , 2k etc. Declined aswell. I am very heartbroken at the moment i really like WLAC and my instructor there as well I will miss him if i go to Booker in Wycombe (Airways Flying Club) now i do not know what they are like and im hoping to pay them a visit this week. I mean every single other school i rang up they all said we can pay in installments, it seems to be only WLAC
.
Wycombe Air Park | Wycombe Air Park my dad wrote wlac a letter and we have not even received a reply its been a week and a half now. Even my instructor tried speaking to the owner and managers. Is Booker perhaps better than WLAC?? The main thing I will miss is my instructor. Also booker's deal with us was that For every £1000.00 we put on account they give us a 3% advance payment credit as long as our account is clear. Now I have no idea what this means?
Thanks people, I know this thread must be abit wierd but i have noone else to talk to because noone else understands me and how much saddened i am at the moment
