Hi Jordan

Go for Durham. Best Uni in the UK, though they now allow girls into Grey College so spoiling the fun of smuggling your girlfriend past the porters!! I was there in the 70s when NUAS flew from RAF Ouston on Hadrian's Wall it had 3 runways, one hangar with 7 Chipmunks and 3 gliders no wonder it was closed!! The Mess was full of partying students at the weekend - ah nostalgia!

If you are successful in reaching the high standards expected of a NUAS member you will have a wonderful time. I am still flying the Chipmunk's successor the Tutor and have had 30+yrs of flying which all started with NUAS.
