Question Flying clubs around London

Hi guys,

There is an old thread but I was looking for an update on this.
Anyone know a good flying club near London? [Archive] - PPRuNe Forums

I'm a 24y old guy from across the channel. I just moved to London, and I recently got my EASA PPL licence in the US.

Any advice with regards to which flying club to join? My choice would be based on distance from London (using public transport ^^ ), cost of flying and social atmosphere in the club.

Bonus question: I'm planning to take ~3h of lessons to get used to the UK airspace ( as opposed to USA). Would it be worth wile to get an extra type-rating at the same time? (I have trained in PA28-161 so maybe get rated for PA28-181 or possibly to an Archer )

Best and thank you,
