Hello!
I am thinking about joining GFC in the next couple of weeks, and was wondering if there are any members here who could shed some light on their experiences with the club. I've browsed their website and although landing fees are extortionate (good old BAA) their rates seem reasonable enough.
I did my trial flight last summer from CBN in a C150, which I enjoyed... but the money dried up. I have reconsidered and now I think I'll go for Glasgow because
1) Its closer
2) IMO it would be better to be in the circuit #2 to a 757 than a Katana :
3) Its a better experience with R/T, zone clearances, busier.
I'm guessing I'll be taught in one of the two tomahawks.
Anyway, I've got a few hundred pounds to get me started (membership, few lessons, book(s)) and was wondering if anyone could gimme any advice...
I also have a mate there who says they have visits to ScACC and PF TWR occasionally for members... I have visited TWR before on Work Experience but I'd have stayed all day if I got the chance (a compliment to any PF ATC reading).
Anyway I'm rabbling on a bit here... any help is appreciated either reply or by email:

Thanks in Advance.
