[looptheloop]

I will be spending most of the summer in the North West, near to Barton and Liverpool and would love to spend some time in the air. I have FAA PPL & IR and JAA PPL, i am currently studying for my ATPL written exams and could benefit from getting my head out of the books and into the skies.
If you need a flying buddy, please let me know i'd be more than happy to split the costs.
Louise.

[gcolyer]

I have a PA28 booked from 17:00 to 19:00 today if anyone fancies a bimble.

Rossco

[Blinkz]

Hey all, recently gained CPL/ME/IR/MCC with ATPLs and looking to get in the air again so if anyone is going flying and would like company then feel free to yell. Based in Hampshire pretty much in between Blackbushe and Popham, but any west-London club is probably do-able.

[smith]

Heading from Prestwick to Blackpool and Leeds then back to Prestwick thurs or fri this week if anyone wants to hitch a ride. Will be there and bak in about 5 or 6 hours.

[Scottishflyer182]

Hi all,

[Antonfol]

Hi, I am based at St Albans and would really like to get airborne. If you are doing any flying from North London, Elstree, North Weald or Staplford etc and fancy a co-pilot or maybe a navigator I would be grateful. I have an FAA PPL/IR and could do with getting up in the air in the UK.

[J-Man]

Looking for people from leeds, doncaster or sherburn that do regular flying there and have seats available (no dates specified due to work constraints). Im not a holder of a PPL and only done a trial flight but i love to go flying. Can contribute to costs if needed. Aircraft size doesnt matter, just a seat its good for me so i can get some knowledge before doing a NPPL/PPL

Hi,

I have just started my ppl(A) at Cranfield and am willing to share costs on flights to get experience if anyone is interested. I'm based around 15 mins from Cranfield so can usually fly at short notice.

Ed

[BWFiftyworld]

MrHorgy,
I am an enthusiatic "would like to be PPL" but with a son doing the OAT APP course, that seems unlikely for a while! In the meantime, until he returns with his ATPL (!) I wouldn't mind sharing some GA flying experience from time to time. If interested, PM me. Anyone else responded positively?

[Scottishflyer182]

I plan to fly from Perth on Tuesday.

Prob Oban, Mull, Skye, Wick, Inverness and back to Perth.


seats available/:ok:

[Brian304]

Hey people

Just wondered if anyone is around the bournemouth or liverpool area that can offer PA28 time and split the costs. PPL still valid with about 220TT and some hours on TB10, C152, PA38, PA28. But would most likely try and practice manourvers on the PA28 ready for my CPL in the future, and also currently an ATPL student.

Brian304:ok:

[gcolyer]

I have 2 spare seats on Thursday 31st May if anyone is interested. I will be leaving Bristol Filton by 19:00

I will consider stopping en-route for pick ups, if you are willing to soak up the landing and handling fee for the stop. And I wouldn't mind sharing the fuel cost.

I plan to return to Filton on Monday 11th June. Which means whoever decides to come will get to see the whole of the TT race week and remember it is the 100th Anniversary this year.

[LH2]

Anyone in Empuriabrava, I'll be doing some flying there tomorrow.

[flexy]

I am flying around the cambridge area and usually have between 1 and 5 seats free. Usually 1 cos wobblywing flying is the best! Anyone want to come along for flying, tea out of chipped mugs, and general chit chat just let me know - no charge.....

[gcolyer]

Last offer for this flight as I have to submit special branch paperwork in the morning.

[Mondeoman]

If anybody fancies any company flying out of Hawarden or Liverpool feel free to PM me. Would be nice just to get back in the air, anytime as I'm looking for that first elusive flying job! I have experience on PA38, PA28,PA28R, Duchess, Diamond Da42, and 172,152 if that helps anyone. Thanks:rolleyes:
PS. I think that the smilie face looks a bit like me, I swear!

[Wibblemonster]

[Skypartners]

I am flying every week between Coventry, Blackpool and Newquay. Rarely day trips but if anyone want some one way transfers or 2/3 day returns in a fast single (Lancair Columbia 350 - NQY to BLK approx 1 hr 20) let me know.

[maybe one day!]

Hi everyone. Is anyone around essex/herts looking for someone to share costs? Would love to go up with a flying partner. msg me

[northernlightIII]

If anyone would like some French hospitality I am looking for a lift home most weekends from any KENT / Hampshire airport.
( LFAX is Mortagne Au Perche / Tarmac 2300ft ). 171nm South of Kent International - Marsden. I live 5 minuites from LFAX. My other half wants me home to cut the grass !!! Dinner is on us !

[tittybar]

I am a low houred PPL flying from Shobdon C152/PA28 Archer. If anyone in the area fancies cost sharing flights and maybe exploring further afield let me know.

[stickandrudderman]

I have an idea......
I have an apartment in Croatia and I'd like to fly there in a cirrus SR22.
I have access to the plane but can't afford the round trip on my own!
So, anyone fancy this trip on a cost sharing basis?
Accommodation at my place when we get there is obviously on me!
I reckon a long weekend with a spot of sailing round the islands sounds good.
I have IMC but no IR, so unless someone with an IR wants to come we'll have to go VFR, with all that that entails.
Any takers?
PM me if you want details of the accommodation. I don't want to be accused of advertising!

[tegwin]

Im Hour building from Shobon in an R-22....Usually have an empty seat...Wont be flying for a fortnight or so, but after that im going to be getting busy...

So PM me if your local and fancy a ride:ok:

[trafficcontrol]

I am 18, PPL for 1 year. Based at Wycombe air Park. C152 and C172, looking to either share legs, or share costs to get a bit further than half hour away..due to income problems :P

PM me if you would eith like to come as a passenger and wouldnt mind contributing, or likewise, would like to share the aircraft with me and fly a few legs.

[proctor]

I was just wondering if anyone had a spare seat for an enthusiastic (if broke) young PPL in the Paris area any time this summer. I know it's a long shot, but I've got my fingers crossed, as I'm keen to expand my aviation experience as much as possible.

Ta,

Proctor

[BWFiftyworld]

Mondeoman - are you looking for a rhs only, or would you be prepared to be PIC and cost share with a non-pilot, who is thinking about it, to keep the hours up..? Where did you train..?

[Mondeoman]

Prepared to go RH or LH seat, prefer LH seat obviously! If you want to go flying anytime just PM me and we can sort something out. Did PPL at Hawarden and all comercial training at Atlantic flight training in Coventry. Currently flying on a part time basis for Jefferson Aerial photography, based at Hawarden. If you fancy it let me know!:)

[BWFiftyworld]

Mondeoman, I can't get to the members' list to get your e-mail (it's apparently been disabled by the administrator) so if you'd like to either give me a call on 07748 783558, or e-mail me at [email protected] we can have a chat! :ok:

[NewbieBwuuci]

anyone flying around the YWHA region, 14 year old wannabe looking to add to his 1.2hrs. :{ Trial in a BE17 Skipper, Local + Curcuit in a BE23 Sundowner (with my terrified mum sitting in the back..:eek:).

I am also looking to have a Trial or a lilttle go at Rotor if anyone can do that for me.

[Scottishflyer182]

I have an idea......
I have an apartment in Croatia and I'd like to fly there in a cirrus SR22.

Your offer sounds great. I fly a 182 from Perth only had about 30mins on a SR22. But would be happy to get checked out/or go in my C182.

Not sure if I've missed the boat.................

Cheers

Colin

[stickandrudderman]

It's not a boat, it's a plane!
Anyway, it hasn't left yet!
PM me for more info.:ok:

[gcolyer]

Anyone for a jolly in the southwest skies on Saturday (14th July)?

If so I have a psare seat from Bristol Filton from 11:00 to 14:00.

PM me if interested.

[IRpilot2006]

I am based in the south east, on the coast, and am looking for a passenger who has a PPL and who is happy to ride in the back seat.

The rather bizzare reason for this is that I have a very capable young son who likes to fly the aeroplane, who is seriously good at it, who is perfectly capable of landing it, but my ex wife (who has legal custody and likes being difficult) demands that another "qualified" pilot is present.

I have an FAA CPL/IR, FAA Class 1 medical, over 700 hours TT and 500hrs on the type, a fully airways equipped 2002-year TB20GT. I am not an instructor but let him take the controls - all perfectly legal.

We will do anything, from little local flights to more proper planned trips, including going abroad, both VFR and airways.

No cost contribution at all is sought. You just need a PPL. You should also be reasonably "compact" - the TB20 has ample room but so many people are just too big.

Most of my flying is done weekdays; in the summer school holidays anyway. Weekends are more difficult.

If interested, please PM or email me.

[On the Spot]

Anyone going near the above in the near future and able to give a lift there or back or both, to a FAA PPL/IR for a share of costs ?

[kim_rolfe]

I'm based in the Brisbane, Australia area, and looking for pilots / pax to share costs in a 172. Flying out of Caboolture, training through ADFA. Particularly interested in doing a trip to Alice Springs in late August. Heard its nice country out there.

[betterfromabove]

Anyone regularly flying out of Cannes (or one of the other nearby airfields on the CDA) & want to cost-share....?

If so, PM me....

BFA

[Andy_RR]

I'm currently in the UK for the next two weeks (till 7th). Whilst I am busy doing this and that, I am pretty flexible with my time, so if anyone needs 100kg of RHS company to go flying, I'm happy to cost-share at 152-172-PA-28 type hourly rates. I'm based in NN1 and have a JAR-PPL(A) but very un-current. Last flew PIC in a C172 at Jandakot (West Aus) in January.

Cheers, Andrew

PS: I know the weather's a bit ****e, but I'll keep my fingers crossed.

PPS: If anyone offers a spare seat in an RV, I will bite your hand off! :cool:

[CraigR1989]

Hi,

Im an 18 year old PPL holder flying from Durham Tees Valley... Looking for additional pax... Am qualified on both PA38 (2 seater) and a PA28 (4 seater)

I might have (will know by tomorrow) a spare seat in my Pioneer 300 from a strip near Cardiff to the Letterkenny Flyin, Donegal, out Sat 4th August, returning Sun 5th. (B&B available @ 40euros)

[Bored-teacher]

I get similar grief from my wife, we can all fly as a family but i can't take one child alone!! Strange!

Anyway, I am a pilot (Warrior, British Airways Flying club) and a teacher, hence long holidays. I would happily drive down to Shoreham? for a free day trip to France. Tell your wife that I am fully qualified although I am not very good at taking over from the back seat!

E mail me please [email protected]

Anyone up for sharing costs while building hours?

After a few years of work commitments, family etc etc I am now returning to flying and saving up money this year to undertake a semi-intensive PPL(A) course next year in UK - most probably from Blackpool.

I have previously flown as a student pre-solo on gliders and 4 hours towards a PPL(A).

I am looking for anyone willing to let me join them for cost sharing trips/circuits, etc for some re-familiarisation for myself and to satisfy my urges to fly now :)

I live in East Lancashire, and happy to travel within North West England and Yorkshire.

Any invites preferably by PM as I can't get online too much.

Cheers

John

[stickandrudderman]

I'm Denham-based and my mounts alternate between Cirrus, chipmunk and PA28.
I've 200 hrs but my usage has dropped significantly in the last 12 months due to some cash consuming projects over-running somewhat.
I'm happy to accompany others from the area, especially in something exciting, but will also welcome the company of other pilots or enthusiasts as long as they're happy to contribute towards the costs.
Where should we go?

I like a laugh and don't like "anoraks".:ok:

[Captainkarl]

Hello all, I am an aerospace technology student at univeristy of Hertfordshire. I have 50ish hours logged but no PPL/NPPL and looking for some right seat or any seat to get me back in a flying/thinking situation as I have been grounded since march last year due to getting type 1 diabetes. I plan to start working on my NPPL after 21st jan. Anyone willing to lift a home sick pilot back into the clouds?

Karl

[Captainkarl]

:rolleyes: anyone please? I promise I wont go hypoglycemic on you in flight!

[BRL]

Hi Karl, give it a bit of time mate for people to actually read your post.

A lot of people here fly for a living/spend a lot of time in the air so they may be away or busy for the time being.

Good things come to those who wait and all that......!

[Captainkarl]

sorry, withdrawel symptoms. Been out of the skies for nearly a year now and learning about aerospacey stuff makes me wish I was up there

[coopervane]

Hi

I am a student PPL with 35 hours (all in a PA28). I have recently gone solo I know it was well above the norm but I got there in the end, lol . My instructor who was excellent has now left the flying club and I am now struggling to get up in the sky, so a spare seat anywhere in Yorkshire would be really appreciated. More than happy to share costs and buy the food



Thanks

[TotalBeginner]

Hi!

I'm looking for somebody in the southeast (Cambridgeshire) area to go flying with. Preferably someone with similar experience (90hrs PPL)

Currently flying a PA28 Archer III.

[finsch]

If your looking for right seat ballast Iam the one if two needed no problems, will bring tea and coffee,living in worcester

[marty1468]

Hi All,
This is a great post and the offers and replies are awesome. I haven't read all of the pages (too many during work hours hehe :O) so i dont know if this has been brought up yet.

Is anyone able to offer this sort of thing in Australia? I'm living in Brisbane and am doing my CPL part time. I have 192 hours as of jan 08 (PA28,C172, C172RG, C182RG).

My problem is that by the time i scrape some money together to go flying again i forget a few things from the previous flight and then i feel as if i am not getting anywhere. It would be great if someone had a spare seat on weekends so i could sit in and learn and keep my mind active in the cockpit environment.

Fingers crossed.

[Albinoni]

Lapsed lady PPL, early fifties, would love to find flying-friend(s) at Biggin Hill. I was very proud to get my licence in 1997 but it became increasingly difficult to find regular flying partners and I eventually stopped flying all together. I don't necessarily want to re-validate my licence, but I am keen to get back into the skies if only just for the sheer fun of it! Please contact me if you're an experienced pilot who would appreciate the company of a female ex-PPL.

[AirJunky]

Hi All,

I am currently starting out on my PPL at Wycombe Air Centre, early days but I am loving it! I am keen to get some more flying experience, so if anyone has a spare seat available out of Wycombe one weekend or even just wants to meet for a chat over a coffee let me know - I'm buying!

Cheers :ok:

AJ

[Insight]

Hey AirJunky,

I have very recently started my training at Wycombe air park too, I hope to be able to move the gear up a notch this year depending on funds (recession permitting etc). Currently only 3 hours and getting over my air sickness (was fine the last 2 flights! :) ).

@ All,

Am also a budding aviation photographer (mostly vintage stuff), if you know anyone who can fly in formation with you and would like some air to air shots for the wall at home give me a shout! Will do static work as well if you have an aircraft you would like photographing on the ground.

Some of my ground to air / static work can be found here (http://www.flickr.com/photos/jameswheeler/collections/72157602123523088/).

Send me a pm if anyone is interested.

[smaccabe]

Hello Everyone,
I'm new to the forum but so far I have to say it is very addicting. Lots of great stuff on here.

A little background info of my self first.

I moved here from Canada to the UK in 2005 just after getting my PPL. In the first year I did get up flying at the Cheshire Flight school and had a successful checkout. I also managed to get up once out of Kemble Air Field that summer. Since then I've managed some flying on return trips to Canada. As you can appreciate the prices in the UK for aircraft rentals are dear compared to what I was accustomed to in Canada. Neither here nor there now as I'm enjoying my time here in the UK. But I've not done as much flying as I had hoped.

If anyone is flying about, has a spare seat and is looking for some company I'd appreciate the opportunity to get up. Generally weekends are good. And from time to time I can take a day off during the week for pre-planned longer legs. I live in the Swindon area in Wiltshire. Willing to travel up to an hour. Preferably looking to fly with experienced pilots to gain some of their knowledge and experience.

Take care and happy flying everyone!

[bnp goldwing]

hi, i am 39 yrs old and am on the look out for a spare seat to keep someone company so i can get more experience in the air.i am learing in a cessna at the moment. i could go from nottingham east mids or any area fairly close ish to derby or nottingham areas .other areas considered. week days or weekends. i am currently learning to fly to get my jaa licence and hopefully go on to be commercially licenced.any plane would do. spitfire or any war plane would be a treat. lol. i wish! free would be nice please. my email is [email protected] ([email protected]) thank you for taking time to look at my advert.

[baronzee]

Hey

Doing my hour building from Elstree, I did my PPL at Denham, looking at some one that may help out with the costs, went to Manchester Int and Liverpool the other day, done my night rating, looking for someone to fly with.

[Squeegee Longtail]

43 yr old Cannes based UK PPL/IMC 250hrs (expired) would love to fly again. Unfortunately, medical now unattainable. Would be happy to contribute (financially and workload) on flights from UK to S. France or the other way.

Can anyone offer anything to help? I have tried the local market here, but not much happening. Have tried the flight schools, but they only want to train (ie you need the medical first) or full charter - not my thing.

Here's hoping....

[JP1]

It was suggested to me that the best way to gain experience was to team up with another inexperienced PPL and share trips together, that way you can't rely on each other since you are both just as bad as each other :}

I think is sounds an excellent way to improve and gain more flying experience.

So if there is anyone from Old Sarum that also thinks it's a good idea and wants to team up with me, PM me. I did my PPL in the Bulldog and ideally would like to fly once a month as P1, and then once again as your passenger. So that in effect is flying every fortnight.

[flyingsteve55]

JP1 wish OS was nearer to me (although not ridiculously so, I', at Blackbushe) - it sounds like we have similar flying needs (restrictions?). Also aim to fly once a month, twice in the air would be great. I'm restricted to club Warrior III at the moment - anyone interested PM me too.

[JP1]

So slightly closer than me then:).. in Camberley.

[flyingsteve55]

must be all of 5 miles in it, but i'll soon be nearer by another 8! Off to Hook hopefully :8 Maybe we can get some share time after all

[TotalBeginner]

Does anybody have a spare RHS on a trip to Le Touquet? Would like to experience it to give me a bit more confidence about going myself. :}

[PridiYungThang]

I have RHS available once/twice a week in Falke motorglider,cost sharing will be £10 each for an hours flying,I'm based in the York area,unfortunately max weight for passenger will be 14st,only got 45hp upfront,PM if interested,

PYT

[airmiles]

I live in the Oxford area and would love to be able to sit in the RHS in any plane or glider just to get flying again. Is there anyone out there who loves to fly but would like to share the experience? I would also like to do Europe trips. I will obviously share the cost if we both get to fly. I love flying and just dont get the chance to do much lately. Is anyone in Oxfordshire who does much flying and is willing to have me sit with them? I would travel a certain mileage to get somewhere if I can get to fly.

[Evalu8ter]

2000+ hr military (Firefly/Bulldog/Tucano/Tutor/various RW) and just started flying FW again (Tutor). Located South West (though do travel), happy to share costs for fun flying, confidence building, sampling interesting types (FW or RW) or just a good aviation based chat!

Possibly flying from Biggin Hill to North Weald on Friday March 28th for the Air Race School (I'm going to be marshalling, not racing...) if anyone else is going up there for the navigating/martialling and wants a lift? Would have to takeoff from Biggin Hill about 08:00 and leave North Weald about 17:00.

[wilson87]

What a great thread for young, budding pilots.

I would love to take this oppertunity to experience some short flights, as you can see I'm based in the Glasgow area and would jump at any given chance to experience first hand flying.

I don't have any flying experience however once I start University I do intend to take flying lessons over in the USA.

Anyone from the Glasgow area looking in and kind enough to give a helping hand is more than welcome to PM me.

Would be truly appreciated. Thanks.

[radicalrabit]

As soon as my house gets sold I will be bringing PA28 to Barton. Two weeks time I hope, If anyone else flies PA28 (Cherokee) or something similar and has a seat available (or two) please let me know. Also looking for experienced pilot to do some cross country flying with. (sex /gender irrelevant)

[Wibblemonster]

I'm 20 hours into my PPL, based in the south west (Plymouth) during the week & EGNT (Newcastle) at weekends, I've not flown since August last year when I went solo for the first time, unfortunately a new business had stopped me from flying. I'm now back on the revision for the exams & would be interested in sharing costs to get some more experience in.

I'm 34 & a sensible chap :E

PM me or email [email protected]

looking forward to hearing from someone :ok:

[vanHorck]

I am looking for a co pilot with a current MEP/IR for a pristine Seneca IV for a few european trips in the next few months at least.
Could be a retired commercial pilot wanting to fly a bit for fun or a recently fully licensed frozen ATPL wanting to make some hours (Seneca experience appreciated)
No need to contribute financially. I have a british PPL/MEP/IMC but i need the legal IR on board for my (leisure) trips

Youthfull cheerful character essential !!!!!!

Who dares?

Hi

My name is Lee, I am 35 and will be starting PPL(A) at Henlow in a few weeks.
I've had an hour Trial at Cambridge last summer in a C172, which was when I was bitten by the flying bug.

If anyone has a spare seat in anything, going anywhere, even just circuits!, I would love to come along.
At this stage I can learn so much just by watching someone else and asking lots of stupid questions!

Ideally I'm am looking for someone flying out of Herts, Beds, Bucks or Cambs or around these area's.

Please send me a PM if you can help a serious wannabe!

Many thanks

Lee

[Kerosine]

Hello guys/girls,

I am a PPL student, and hopefully will be heading off to New Zealand for Integrated training (yes some question my financial sanity!).

I'd love to get in the air, so if anyone in the Manchester area would like some company, I'd be happy to cost share along the way.

Thanks.

[LH2]

I am looking for a co pilot with a current MEP/IR

I have all of 45min of Seneca experience and sod all hours overall. I'm also not particularly youthful-acting and definitely not cheerful (you would make people laugh if you said that of me). What I'm getting at is I'm not your type of guy :}

However, I do have a current JAA MEIR, European touring experience (esp. France & Spain, where I also speak the languages), lots of free time, and of course I like flying to places for no particular reason, so if you get stuck without a co-pilot and are desperate to go somewhere, you could always drop me a PM. Also if I'm available at all I'm available on short notice so there's a potential plan 'B' for you.

Cheers

[cirruscrystal]

Hi all,

I'm a 26yo student pilot working towards my PPL and beyond, but I'm unable to commit to regular lessons until my Wife finishes her studying later this year.:} So meanwhile I'd love to like to fill some empty space on any fixed wing a/c in the South/South East to learn a little from obversation. Maybe I can help to reduce the high cost of fuel in return and provide more in depth conversation than NATS during the flight :)

I'm based in Portsmouth, so anything close to there, or around Hampshire and London would be ideal.

[10069]

Hi im looking for oppurtunities to cost share my flying or be able to just come along for the ride:) The reason for asking is that i want be able to fly further than just my local area:8 and gain some more experience by landing at new airfields, as having a weekend job at smiths only allows for about an hour and a half a month:{ (work sundays)
I am 17 years old and in my first year of A-levels:rolleyes: Just recently passed my PPL have about 58hrs total. Planes flown inlcude the DA20, C172, PA28 and i currently fly the DA40 (Best plane ive ever been in:}) I fly out of shoreham but i can travel to any local airfileds such as Goodwood, Redhill and Biggin would all be great

Hi,

I'm currently in training for my PPL. I started last August at the age of 16 and now have 15 hours gained now. I usually fly a PA38 from Liverpool airport, but would appreciate time in any aircraft.

If anyone is currently able to assist with increasing my experience in the RHS of any aircraft within the Wirral or Cheshire region I would be very greatful.

and of course I would be happy to split the costs.
Please PM me if you can help

Wx permitting I need to take my toy to Bidford tomorrow and return home minus toy on wednesday or thursday. Anyone leaving UK either from around Bidford (near Stratford on Avon) or alternatively Luton area with France for destination.

That toy wouldn't happen to be Super Cub G-BPUL, which I noticed in the main hangar at Chauvigny when I was there last month?

[Piper.Classique]

That toy wouldn't happen to be Super Cub G-BPUL, which I noticed in the main hangar at Chauvigny when I was there last month? Yes, that toy is indeed G-BPUL. Has a need for annual, star (it's annex two) and the generator fixing. I got back by bumming a lift to Portsmouth, then a very expensive ferry to Caen. My poor long suffering husband came to collect me at Caen.
When the generator comes back in a couple of weeks I will need a lift TO UK if you are likely to be in the area. The gourmet meal offer etc still stand :)

[will5023]

Hi P-classique, did you find a lift ?

Will.

[Piper.Classique]

Thanks Will. I got home OK, need to go to UK but don't yet know when, depends on the A/C being ready for collection

[scoobysnack]

Hi there, I fly DA40's/PA28's from shoreham.Im looking to split the cost of flying as the credit crunch is really starting to bite! I fly abt 1-2 hours a month,maybe more depending on pocket and Wx. Currently im about equidistant between redhill/lashenden/shoreham and just looking for normal people to split the cost of flying with!

Also if anyones down at KA and got a perfectly good seat going to waste please let me know!

Hi

I'm a 19yr old PPL hour building towards the CPL, I currently have 76 hours and have pic'd to airports between le Touquet and Leicester, but now I am looking to team up with somebody to help share the costs involved in very long distance flights so I can really push some boundaries.

I am based at wycombe air park, and have ratings for the cessna 152 and 172 skyhawk. Please PM me if you are interested, one of us flying one leg and the other flying the return, 50/50 costs.

Thanks

[donPablo]

Hi,

one question, I'm from Poland and maybe we have some other JARs but how do You guys log this "shared cost" hours or "one leg me/one leg you" hours, who's the boss then ? (PIC :) ) and what counts ???

P.S. can safety pilot log any hours ?

[modelman]

P1 can change during flight ( for instance a NPPL'er flying UK to France can fly to the coast or maybe even the FIR boundary) and than hand control to the guy in the other seat.This is not the usual understanding of cost/hours sharing ( as it raises the issue of P1 flying from the RHS,usually the preserve of instructors)they normally take the form of you fly it there and I'll fly it back type of thing.

If by safety pilot you mean someone that has basic training but does not hold a licence,they could only log hours if flying with a current flight instructor.

Prob best to move this to the general Private Flying area if any extended debate appears.

Any spare seats going in the Tyne & Wear and surrounding areas (Durham etc)?

Flying 1-2 hrs per month out of Staverton on PA-28s. Anyone looking to cost-share?:ok:

[rich_g85]

Hiya,
I'm strongly considering taking my NPPL (see my other thread), in the meantime I'd love to go flying with someone willing to take me - my local airfield is Compton Abbas, anyone based there? I'm happy to share costs, buy lunch etc :)

Rich

[rich_g85]

I could have sworn I'd posted this once already but it didn't show up, so here it is again!

I'm considering taking my NPPL at Compton Abbas and would really like to go flying with someone who's qualified and willing to take me.

I'm happy to share costs, buy lunch etc

Rich :)

[Hogster]

PBV, I might be interested in flying out of Staverton with you, I've only recently got my PPL (actually, still waiting for the paperwork just now) but if that's not a problem for you ... send me a PM with your contact details and I'll be in touch.

[pycroft]

Hi,

I am PPL student (at last gone solo.......... 28 hours :confused:). I currently try to fly every week or two in a PA28 from Sandtoft. I am looking to get more air experience, especially on Navigation. More than happy to cost share or buy the coffees.

PM me if poss.

Thanks for reading

To most people the sky is the limit..... to pilots its a playground!

[Felix Saddler]

Any shuttleworth flyers or anyone within the bedfordshire area with a spare seat that i could possibly take up? Would be of inspirational value and may even be worth a good old sold pint!

[JayDeeFlyer]

We have a Socata Rallye, the wifes toy, have thought about putting out to shares but not sure in the current climate, its a great item to have but really needs to be skywards more.

So if you don't mind sitting in the RHs and going for a bimble over Suffolk give us a mail, aircrafts on a private strip near Sudbury, so whether your thinking about your ppl or just want to go and have a flight without mega commitments, just a shame to have that seat empty a lot of the time.

share of some costs would be appreciated, but can chat about things if anyones interested.

Alex & Linda

[Paul_Bendrey]

Hi PBV

I've sent you a pm about the cost sharing.

Happy Flying!

Hi,

I'm looking for an experienced pilot to sit in the RHS of a C152, Archer or Turbo Arrow from Blackbushe. I'm a recently qualified PPL (already with turbo, retractable and vpp differences training) looking to build hours alongside someone with a little more experience. Also looking to stretch my wings abroad, so if anyone has experience flying in France/Germany that would be a bonus. No need to contribute, I'll pay for the flights.

Hi I am (JAA) PPl with about 60 hours in total. I trained in Florida, and I am currently trying to start my hour building. I would be looking to build my hours up to the CPL requirements, hopefully with some good sunny weather it could be done in a few weeks. I am interested in sharing my hour building with another hour builder. The main reasons are to have the company to gain knowledge and of course its never a bad thing to have a safety pilot.

I was just wondering if many people do this, and if so where would be the best place is to find interested pilots.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Email me if you are really interested.

Komn - where you based ?

[FlyEJF]

Hi,

I am a recently qualified ppl and am based at Cranfield. I'm looking to cost share as I am getting bored of local flights on my own. I'd like to go further afield and land away but with the current fuel prices and my wages ;) it's difficult. I am ideally looking for another recently qualified ppl who flies out of Cranfied or an airfield close by but am very willing to cost share with students or enthusiasts.

Let me know if you're interested

Hello to you both
I have just arrived at my 80th year on this earth but nevertheless love to get my feet off of it by way of taking to the sky --- many years ago I worked on Percival Proctors Vega Gulls - Q6 Petrels - & Miles Magisters therefore it is still an ambition to fly in one such type, but sadly they are 'few on the ground' right now, however I always imaging that the 'wings around me' belong to one of them.
Sadly I do not live Nr Sudbury but nearer to Clacton, do you ever fly into there.

I have from time been taken out to my good friends house Nr Hadleigh --- may I ask which strip you fly out of please?

Regards

L R

[greenviewpark]

My regrets -- I should have addressed the mail to JayDeeFlyer

I was wondering if anybody had a spare seat going in the Dublin/Meath/Louth area? I am half way through my ppl which I started in the states 18 months ago but currently not in a position to complete due to time and financial constraints. Id love to fly with with someone as a passenger just for the fun of it and to keep up to speed with everything and would be happy to split the cost. Any takers???? (or is this a severe case of wishful thinking?)

[komn]

Hi I was wondering if any body would be interested in shared hour building on a PA 28, with a PPL.

Please send me a message if anyone is interested.

Anyone flying from Shoreham, back to Shoreham that needs a seat filling, can you drop me an email. We can sort out a price.

I have only had 8 lessons in a Glider (K21) down at Parham, Southdown airfield. I have now stopped doing this to save up funds to start my PPL, which will be at the end of May 09. I have booked a flying trial lesson with a flying school at the End of October to go to Isle of Wight to get the motivation started.

Anyone flying from Bristol/FIlton or any other strips/airfields close in the southwest?

Ive completed about 12 hours toward my PPL but I've had to stop to save up more funds, thinking of going away to complete in next year.

However I cant bear to give it up completly so anyone with any free seats I could fill just to keep in the spirit of things?

Greatly apreciated :)

I am going to Cornwall in my R44 and anyone who wants to cost share with me from Shobdon to Cornwall (Bodmin) and back in a day. Flexible on date but looking around 9/10 Oct or week after.

Hey all, im looking to cost share in the shoreham area. Im also looking for shares in east sussex -farmstrip based pref. for a 150/2 pa28. Cant see a reason to spend 17.50 a landing at shoreham anymore!. Got abt 80h ppl.


Also if you fly in east sussex and want to take the rh seat sometime, pm me.:)

[komn]

Hi I am a PPL with 60 hrs experience on both XL2 but more hrs on the PA 28. I am looking for another pilot who is looking to share the costs in hour building with me, I am of the opinion that having the extra pilot on board is a huge advantage and while not always flying he/she could be practicing nav exercises ect always gaining experience.

I would be looking to build up to CPL recruitment but 25 hrs blocks would be great or any really!


If any body is interested please send me a PM.

Thanks for reading this request!

Many Thanks
Karl.

[SEABIRD20]

Hello,
Anyone flying from any midlands airfields interested in some company whilst out on weekdays pleasure flying in anything airworthy. Basically about 15 years ago I did a basic ppl in Australia. Shortly afterwards I returned to the UK and then financial/time commitments took over and the flying took a backseat. The passion is still there and I plan for 2009 as a kickstart to flying again but would love to get back up aloft sooner rather than later. I work shifts so tend to get quite a bit of flexible time during the week. To sum it up for me 'Its not the destination it's the journey' :D

[wsmempson]

I am based at Denham and fly a pa28r 201. Am going for a french bimble tomorrow am, if anyone wants to come along....?

[nick14]

Update from me,

I will be flying out of East midlands, PA28-161 and 181 for an hour or so a month. Any budding aviators/ppl's that want to come along pm me.

Also anyone with current ME rating (preferably on seneca II) want to cost share some hours from november, im looking at keeping my hand in with the old bird.I will be doing some IFR flying as well so will be in need of a safety pilot (current ME on seneca, IMC/IR is preferable).

Hi anyone flying out of Cranfield?

[Rabbs]

Hi all

I have recently moved to Ashford in Kent and I have a share in a PA28 180 in Shipdham (Norfolk).

If anyone has a share/aircraft/access to a club aircraft in Headcorn/Lydd/Rochester who wants a reason to fly out to Norfolk then read on.

I'm hoping to find someone who wants to fly out to Shipdham from Kent on a weekend (or weekends), I'll then fly the PA28 with them in the right seat for an hour or 2 from Shipdham (to anywhere) and they then fly us back to Kent.

If you don't want to fly P2 in the PA28 I'd be happy to share the costs of the flight from Kent to Shipdham/return (infact I'd be happy to do that anyway) and you could have lunch at Shipdham/take a look around there while I fly for an hour or two.

PM me if anyone is interested

[BHenderson]

Safety pilot available in the Bristol/Kemble area. Single/Multi/IFR/Rotary. Drinks on me.

[SmoothFlyer]

I am presently flying from Denham, and may be joining a group at Elstree soon.

In the meantime I would be happy to meet up with fellow aviators and either share some flying, sit in the RHS or have someone come along with me for company. Any cost sharing would be great but not required.

I'm game for just a bimble in the local area or for flights into other airfields. It would be great to meet up with like minded pilots in the North London area.

I am restricted to weekend flying, but can make exceptions to fly weekdays with sufficient notice.

I am a PPL (150hrs) and fly C152, C172 and PA-28.

I'm delivering a R44 to Brno in Czech Republic next week.

The plan is to leave the Midlands early Tues and make it all the way in one day. If not we'll take two days to reach Brno.
Then it's Ryanair back.

If anyone wants to log the time and fly with me, we are happy to share costs. I don't need the hours, so you can have all the stick time at £150 an hour - it will be about 10 hours in total, subject to wind and weather.

Please PM me if you are interested

It would be much appreciated

Thanks all

[Rodders the great]

biggles99, why are you trying to charge people to do your work for you? A assume the heli is going to do the trip anyway, so why not just give some poor wannabe heli man some free hours?

Shame on you for trying to profit from this you greedy sod!

[Fields Farm]

Am learning in an R22 and would be really interested in being a passenger in any helicopter to gain extra experience of flying etc.

I'm based around East Midlands area but more than keen to drive anywhere. Can fly in the week and weekends.

Will bring own flask and sandwiches to share... or if you're not a spam person, glad to pay for lunch at any posh restaurant!
