Why don't you just add a banner and logo? Tayside have had the air cadet contract since before I learnt to fly - I got my licence at the end of 1985 there, having fought, that summer, to actually get hold of an aircraft and instructor which I had to book.

At the age of 31, I went solo at 8.5 hrs so solo at 12 hrs from younger, more focussed kids is hardly exceptional - especially when they have also had gliding experience.

Tayside have run a successful training machine for cadets for over 30 years. Well done, but it does not make them a particularly good place to learn to fly. When I learnt, they were better than the infamous Peter Forbes at Aberdeen - but that just means they actually had honest accounting!

So fine, Tayside continue with ATC cadet training. But if you want to learn to fly and you are using your own money, visit before you commit
