Spare Seats Available / Desired

[dublinpilot]

This thread is for people who are going flying, and have a spare seat, that they are willing to share.

I suggest including the following details in your post.

1. Where you are flying from.
2. Date & time
3. Who you are willing to take. eg. non-flying child, non-flying adult, student pilot, low hour pilot, high hour pilot, pilot with specific experience that you hope to learn from.
4. Costs. Is the seat free, or do you expect the passenger to pay the landing fee, buy lunch, or share all costs.

[Squadgy]

4. Costs. Is the seat free, or do you expect the passenger to pay the landing fee, buy lunch, or share all costs.

Would exercise caution when advertising spare seats like this, see Art 130 of ANO, esp : no information concerning the flight shall have been published or advertised prior to the commencement of the flight other than, in the case of an aircraft operated by a flying club, advertising wholly within the premises of such a flying club in which case all the persons carried on such a flight who are aged 18 years or over shall be members of that flying club.

[Monocock]

OK, i'll kick off and say I'm flying from a strip near Junc 14 of the M4 most weeks. Sometimes I am going somewhere, sometimes I am not.

If anyone wishes to PM me and come for a trip out let me know what kind of flight you want (local summers evening bimble/trip to a destination I might have to do) and I'll gladly accomodate you.

I don't want any money for it, just some decent conversation will do (immigrant rulings / the banning of vegetarianism etc).

Student pilots welcome, high hour pilots too (as long as they don't criticise). Student female pilots especially welcome:E

Seriously, feel free to get in touch. I'm happy to take you.:ok:

[Hampshire Hog]

Looks like a good idea to me - especially for student pilots seeking to learn from those more experienced.

I think the way around the ANO is for people who are happy to take someone flying simply to say that and the generic types of flight that they typically do (inc. broad location). Then no details of any specific flight are being published. Probably best avoid online discussions about costs. That can be raised between the individuals concerned.

It's borderline, but then that's how the law works.

HH

[BRL]

Squadgy: Thank you for the heads up there, there are other aviation forums about that have a seperate forum just for this kind of thing so there is/must be a way around it somehow. (see the post above.)

Have not had an e-mail from the CAA for a while now, so far so good....... :)

[c-bert]

Well since no one is advertising I thought I'd put in a request! I'm a student PPL (33 hours) based in between Southampton and Goodwood and would be very grateful of any free/cheap flying.

Ta in advance.

Mark

[Hampshire Hog]

Ah, C-bert, I thought I might find you here! Likewise, anyone wanting some company, student (14 hours), from Blackbushe or Wycombe? I have a preference for flying with competent pilots in fully airworthy aircraft!

[pilotwolf]

...and would be very grateful of any free/cheap flying. Wouldn't we all!!!

Single seat in Hughes 269 on occasions.. open for suggestions of different places - not necessarily airfields either :ok: -are welcome.

PW

[drauk]

I am willing to offer a free seat to any interested parties. North London, weekdays more often than weekends, but I'm flexible. Would be most interested to hear from students or newly qualified PPL's - I wish I'd known someone to fly with when I was at that stage myself. All I ask for in return is some enthusiasm and interest.

What amazes me is how infrequently offers like this are taken up (never did hear from that kid with the letter in the magazine despite offering precisely what he wanted). I may have a very untrustworthy face, but you can't tell that online...

[ACW 335]

c-bert; why don't you stick a notice up on the Goodwood board in the cafe?
I know there are people who have empty seats as i have been asked if i wanted to go for a jolly!

[FlyFreeWbe]

drauk, when you say north london, do you mean in london or above it? Im a student at herts uni, soon to get my PPL but would be interested in coming up with you during the week in term time. What airfield do you operate out of?

[FullyFlapped]

OK, I fly from Leeds/Bradford, and I'm quite happy to act as an aerial chaperone for any young female students at any time !;)

Only jesting, if there are any students out there who fancy a trip at some point, drop me a PM with your details and preferences.

I'm not often available due to the usual combined pressures of work, family, bank manager and tax man, but you never know, you might catch me on a day when the above haven't ...

FF :ok:

[IMC1]

I fly a turbo Arrow out of Bournemouth and a Mooney out of Biggin. Happy to take a fellow pilot for a 'jolly'. Send me a PM. IMC...

[Andy_R]

I fly from Shoreham and despite a long list of persons wanting to go flying, it is not always possible for them to do so. Warrior, Tomahawk or 150/152, do drop me a PM with your details if you would be interested.

Particularly happy to take up studes or recently qualified PPL's who would like to have someone more experienced sat next to them. I know I have gleaned a lot of knowledge from having someone there to advise/help. And somehow it doesn't seem nearly as nerve wracking!!

Andy

more weekdays than weekends

[BeauMan]

I'm a recent PPL, flying out of Cambridge. Next couple of flights I intend to make already have willing victims, ahem, volunteers, allocated to seats, but there may be the odd occasion when I have the aeroplane booked for an hour, and an empty right hand seat.

I tend to stick to weekends, and probably won't have a seat spare for a good month or so, but if there are any studes or non-flyers who can potentially make Cambridge at short notice, drop me a PM...

[Gertrude the Wombat]

I too have spare seats for trips from Cambridge from time to time. (But you won't want to come on my next flight, as I'm intending to practice short field landings in the circuit.)

[Whirlybird]

I fly a C150 out of Sleap from time to time, and I like having company.

[TheBeeKeeper]

DH Queen Bee at Henlow, (Similar to Tiger Moth), my landings seem better with extra weight of front seat occupied :O

PM me

BK

[PPRuNe Radar]

If the good weather holds out, some spare seats on Friday afternoon (around 1700 local, 10th Sep) from Prestwick to Inverness.

Will be returning around lunchtime on Sunday (12th Sep).

Meeting some Inverness ATC people, Eastern Airways pilots, and PPLs on Friday evening for a few libations.

There is also a group of fliers going out on the Saturday evening as well, although I am otherwise engaged.

Accomodation, food, & drink, all at your own expense and organisation. Seats in aircraft are free, with no taxes :}

Or you can get the train or bus back I suppose !!

[mazzy1026]

How can I not ask for any flying in the Liverpool area! PPL - love to learn some more, and yes I can give an interesting conversation! :ok: :ok:

[Flyin'Dutch']

BRL,

Still busy at the top but would this not be a more worthy cause than the CAA safety evenings?

FD

[BRL]

Good call Frank, took the words out of my mouth.

(Prepare now for the usual threats/whiginging, about safety being more important then spare seats etc etc etc.......)

[Mariner9]

Seat(s) available in a PA28 from Filton to Lasham and back, departing noon Thursday 2nd Dec, weather (particularly vis!) permitting. No cost sharing - just be glad of the company and an extra lookout.

PM if interested.

M9

[jayemm]

PA28 from Blackbushe seeks excuses to fly.

Goes anywhere as long as it's outside the circuit. eg. Sheffield, Leeds, Blackpool, Scotland, West Country (inc Scilly Isles), Wales etc.

Friends and family now exhausted by trips and airfield food, so often have a spare seat or two.

Normally weekends only.

PM if interested.

[Dusty_B]

Always looking for pax to take on joy-rides: I can't fly unless someone helps me get the aeroplane out of the hangar! :hmm: :E

PM me if you'd like to be put on my "standby" list!

[Classic]

I usually have a spare seat flying from Bicester/Turweston on weekdays, probably once a week or so (maybe every fortnight in this weather). Usual bimble for a cup of tea and bacon sarnie etc. PM me if interested.

[cloudskimmer]

i done a bit of flying myself out of leeds .. . . and would love to jumpseat with some of you ppls maybe make a vid with my new camcorder . . . so anyone with a spare seat out of leeds/sherburn let me know

[Unusual Attitude]

Have a share in a C172 out of Aberdeen and am always happy to take anyone who is interested, will fly day or night whichever prefered..

£25 per hour towards my costs and maybe a beer afterwards.....

Drop me a PM if interested.....

[BRL]

Anyone at Shoreham like to offer me an evening/night flight?

Wouldn't mind seeing Sussex after dark from the air, only ever been on the usual scheduled/charter flights in the dark and they are not quite the same are they. :)

[Kingy]

Anyone wishing to share some short strip, taildragger, barnstorming cubbing fun in my 1943 L4 are welcome to PM me.

I fly from Eastbach, Forest of Dean and fly once or twice a week - it's a beautiful part of the world and there are lots of interesting aircraft based at our place too.

I don't want any money for it as I own half the plane and basically fly for gas. I just want to share this wonderful privilege with others.

Cheers

Kingy

[Spikeee]

If anyone is looking for a seat filled in the Barton, Blackpool, Liverpool and Manchester area I’d be happy to contribute to the costs.

My currency is terrible at the minute and it would be good to get up in the air as much as possible. Not managing to fly much personally now that its coming up to crimbo.

Cheers

[terryJones]

If anyone ever needs ballast from Conington or Fenland I would be more than interested. My log book tells me it has been over 12 months since I last had my bum off the ground (well, more than 3 feet off the ground)
One of the drawbacks to retirement, loads of time but little cash to enjoy it with:(

[Ronaldsway Radar]

G'day fellow pilots,

I'm training for my PPL on the Isle of Man, but if theres anyone around liverpool/blackpool or very close to them, or the IOM of course, that can spare an hour for a short flight, I would really enjoy the learning experience, and the pilot chit-chatter!
Maybe when I pass my PPL, I can do the opposite and offer flights instead...
Martyn

[NT42]

Hey,

Inexperienced student here! If anybody happens to have their own, or a share in an aircraft at Newcastle (or Eshott) I'd be more than happy to come along for a flight. (Obvious statment I know!). If any free / cheap flights are available, please PM me!

Thanks,

John Foreman.

[coopervane]

Barton and Isle of Man rides available. PM me if you fancy it!

Coop & Bear

[Hold Foxtrot (again)]

Anyone nr EGNT. expierienced pilot willing to share beer money
for right seat rides.


Cheers



John,It will sort itself out one day (JWF)

[Dunc]

I fly my Mooney and Aztec out of Elstree. Happy to take someone in rh seat. PM me if interested.

[DRJAD]

I frequently have some spare seats available. Mainly, currently, from Sherburn.

PM me if interested in occupying a seat.

[grumman_driver]

Taking advantage of EasyJet flights CPH-Stansted I had this idea of "exchange". I'll pick you up at CPH airport, we'll go flying in a pa 28-181 or a C 172SP from Landskrona in Sweden over to Denmark. I'll expect to be treated in the same way in return.
Flights leave Stansted on weekends at 07.15, landing CPH 09.55, return 19.35 landing Stansted 20.30.
Isn't it a nice way to spend a weekend?

[BRL]

Decent weather for a while so time to bring this up.

Does anyone have a spare seat available from Shoreham over the next couple of days?

Redhill and Goodwood would be nice too if anyone would like some talking ballast for a while........... :)

[Confabulous]

Just thought I'd resurrect this thread as it's summer and end of VFR is so much later, thus more opportunities to go aviatin'

Also would like to thank two Irish PPRuNers (Dublinpilot and Soul Doctor) for ferrying my bulk from A to B in a comfortable and aerodynamic way while tolerating my incessant heading excursions! :ok:

Confab

PS: Can this be turned into a sticky for the summer months?

[dublinpilot]

Confab,

It was a joy to bring you flying!

I'll email you the pics and the gps trail over the weekend.

dp

[BRL]

Hi there. I will stick it when the fly-in sticky has finished.

Anyone on the coast got anything going give us a shout. :)

[sparks-flying]

Hi there

Anyone in with spare seat in Manchester, Barton, Blackpool or Liverpool area I'd be grateful to hear from! Please PM me!!

Cheers SF

[italianjon]

Hi guys,

I am hoping to start the training for my PPL this summer. I want to do a full time course.

At the moment I am pre-studying the ground school part.

I would be grateful of a seat in a plane, just to sit there and see theory in action. It would help with the study.

I am a dab hand at being ballast, can speak - so can assist in alleviating boredom; and generally have two arms two legs, and one head on my shoulders!

I live in the South, so anywhere inside the square created by Popham, Blackbushe, Denham and Booker, is ideal.

PM me if you can help.

Laters

Jon

[pponting]

Occasional RH seat available in Liverpool.

No money expected if I have a spare seat and am going up anyway.

[wbryce]

occasional spare seat avail at cumbernauld....

[Bob Stinger]

Regular spare seats Blackpool.

[Blinkz]

I've got a spare seat here at blackbushe, altho I'm a brand-spanking new PPL at the moment so I'd prefer to have a fellow pilot in the other seat to swap ideas and experiences to start with! If I'm flying anyway then don't really mind no money, but someone splitting the costs is always welcome! PM if interested.

[BRL]

Flying season is well underway and I had forgotten about this thread so I have stuck it for the time being.

If you have a spare seat let people know here, I know this was popular last year so let us know if you can take someone up.

If anyone has a seat to fill at Shoreham drop us a line :)

[Gerhardt]

This is great! I'm a private pilot from the states and hope to visit the UK again soon. It would be terrific to hitch a short ride with someone!
- Gerhardt

[hingey]

Gerhardt, just PM me if ever your in the Exeter region.

I am a recent PPL holder, in Exeter, looking to sit in the back of any flights just for the experience and sheer pleasure of it. Willing to pay landing/ membership/ lunch fees etc.

Any offers?

Many thanks,

h

[whitingiom]

Hi

I'm a student (11 hours) and wondered if anyone has a spare seat on weekday evenings around Milton Keynes? I'm here with a job for work until 5 August and struggle for things to do on Monday to Thursday nights!

One word of warning, I weigh 95 kilos so might struggle in some smaller aircraft.

Please let me know if you could help.

[wombat13]

I am going out of Sleap this Friday for a days flying around the country with a stop over where ever I end up and back to Sleap no later than 11.00am on Saturday morning.

It is a club plane so I need to be P1 at all time. Don't care too much if you contribute to fuel. Up to you.

No kids and no high hour pilots (unless you have a real sense of humour). To keep the wife happy, any females need to have at least two heads and a hairy back.

Me low hour recently qualified. PA28. An ability to cope with a degree of coarse language is essential.

PM me.

The Wombat

[leeds.flyer]

Hi

I'm a student PPL at Leeds/Bradford (28 hours, HR200), and would love to know if there's ever a spare seat available.

I'll be starting Nav soon so it would be a great help if there was someone I could join on a flight to another airfield and back.

Cheers
Paul

[tpo435]

i'm a fairly "experienced" ppl student and would be keen to share flight costs with qualified ppls in the london and home counties area, especially the northern ones eg. up to cambs. i don't suppose anyone knows of similar threads or websites elsewhere too? i think it's a great idea.

[d192049d]

110 Hr PPL [A] Cessna 152 / 172, club hire as & when from Derby or East Mids. Happy to share at all times with like minded non pilot or pilot for flights in & around the Midlands area.

Also interested in any groups who do not require capital contribution, just monthly DD's.

If you want to buy the "bacon butties" or contribute I will not object.

PM if interested

[PhilM]

Charlie Zulu, you have a PM, thanks :ok:

[Buttino]

Hi everyone,

I've just recently decided that I want to get my PPL but haven't got round to actually do anything about it.....so far!

I'm in the Colchester, Essex area and would love to accompany anyone who needs a passenger. My only experience so far is a trial glider lesson about 3 years ago which was great!

Thanks in advance

anyone flying out of biggin?

i have a little flying experience and am considering a PPL.

I'd love a trip or two, am local to Biggin so can come at short notice - can contribute to costs too

cheers

Zwit

[TJF97]

Zwit,
I started my PPL at Biggin but I found the landing/circuit fee's are so exspensive compared with other local aerodromes.

TJF97

[*Zwitter*]

yeah I know - 8 quid a 'lap' :D

it's just so local to me - Do you know if redhill or headcorn etc. are more reasonable?

[Fretwanger]

anyone flying out of teesside, that requires a passenger give me a bell :) could do with a mentor :)

[TJF97]

£8 A lap and £20 to land at the weekends!!!

I'm told Headcorn is cheaper, You'd have to ring them up.

I can't imagine how much extra the total is for landing/circuit fee's at Biggin, its got to be roughly £1000!!!!

TJF97

[Confabulous]

If anyone's flying out of EIDW or Weston and has a spare seat I'll pay my way!

I am a FI based in NE London / Essex and am available during the week for any nav trips, or overseas flights

PM me if interested !

[Fake Sealion]

Spare Seats ? Yorkshire ?

As a former RN pilot, both fixed and rotary wing, I would leap at any opprtunity to get airborne as a PAX !!

Living near Harrogate, I can travel easily to a fair number of airfields - Leeds, Sherburn, Bagby, Breighton etc etc....even Teesside. Anything considered...as they say !!

So...if any new or not so new PPL's have spare seats available either local GH or further afield, then please PM me. Will of course contribute to costs and buy bacon butties.

Cheers

[Send Clowns]

I have to burn some holes in the sky in a 4-seat twin over the next few of weeks. My cheapest flying is Bournemouth to the channel islands, so for a small consideration we can go to Alderney. If you are willing to make up the difference to me (still less than half the cost of the hours I get cheaply from my employer!) we can go wherever you like from Bournemouth, 2 or even three of you (fuel dependent).

I have a CPL/IR, and all the flying will be IFR, so you get to see what that's like!

[chutneyferret]

check your pms CF

[Thoroughly Nice Bloke...]

Hi all,

I fly a twin out of EGTE IFR to destinations all over Europe two or three times a week and normally have at least one spare seat.

Hi

I'm in Northamptonshire, close to Sywell and considering doing the PPL, would love to grab a spare seat sometime in Northamptonshire or surrounding counties to get some experiance and go for a ride.

Have lots of flying hours, but almost none in GA (do, however, have a sense of humour!) Can bore you for hours about the JP, Gnat, Chipmunk, Canberra, Hunter, Hawk, Buccaneer and charter airlines. Am keen to get as much varied GA experience as possible, preferably in SE England. Happy to pay my share, of course. Also happy to act as unpaid co-pilot on an ad-hoc basis.

[philip2004uk]

Hi just a quick question, if i got my ppl, is it possible to train for other qulals. while flying a friend.
Maybe someone in the back while i'm being instructed.

[NT42]

I THINK you can when flying with an instructor, for your PPL. In one of my early lessons, third or fourth I think, my dad sat in the back. Perhaps it's up to the club? Might be worth asking your instructor. I guess the odd flight with a passanger would be ok, doubt they'd be very happy if someone else came up every lesson though!

John.

[geordiejet]

Im in NEWCASTLE! Would love to go up with anyone, and cost share, PM me if you're interested :-) Have a car, so can travel to anywhere in the North. Have PPL (JAR + FAA), Night, Multi+100.

'Bump' as requested by BRL so he can find this thread again to make it sticky, and a quick copy of my plea :)

I'm in Northamptonshire, close to Sywell and considering doing the PPL, (or probably actually an NPPL Microlight). I would love to grab a spare seat sometime in Group A or Microlight in Northamptonshire or surrounding counties to get some experience and go for a ride.

NPPL with about 90 hours looking to fly with someone. Main aim is to double up trip lengths, so I can actually go somewhere. I realise my hours will stay the same as I can afford now; but if we can can afford 2 hrs each, we can make it a good trip.

I fly C150 out of Elstree but if anyone interested to come as a pax, might take C172. Pls PM me if interested.

HI i am looking to start my PPL this summer, anyone flying from Manston with a spare seat i would be more than happy to keep you company:ok:

[techno68]

hello all
my first message here:) .. you will perhaps come in France within the next months.. If you come in Alsace, east of France, very close to Germany and switzerland. If you not scared to fly with a froggy in a PIPER PA 18, over the beautiful Vosges mountains, not talking about having a cool glass of white Alsace wine or a fresh Alsacian beer.... :ok:

[Lister Noble]

Techno 68,
Welcome to the forum and I would enjoy a trip around the area in your aircraft,plus the glass (or two) of wine!
I will contact you if I come to the Alsace.

[strafer]

Alsace is a beautiful part of the world. Hmmm, very tempting!

[CDH]

Anyone bouncing their way out of Exeter who would be willing to have along a CPL/IR with low hours, please let me know.

Hi I am a student PPL, in the process of completion. I fly from Humberside and would be very interested in taking up any offer of spare seats, etc.

Ambition is to fly Jets, currently looking hard at Jet Provost/L39 syndicates in the UK. If anyone has spare seats in the JP at any time, I would be grateful of the seat time :)

[mdc]

I'm just outside Cambridge, and considering doing the PPL/NPPL. At the moment I am ploughing through the AFE books so I can see what this ground school bit is all about.

I would love to grab a spare seat sometime in or around Cambridgeshire to get some experience, see theory in action (hopefully might make the text clearer, it can be slow going at times) and go for a ride.

Happy to pay some cash for fuel or cost share etc etc.

thank you

Michael

Cheers

[G-BHZO]

Hi everyone, thought it was about time I registered instead of just lurking in the forums!

I am a 100+ PPL with Night Qualification flying from Prestwick. Just back onto the PA28 after a couple of happy years on C172 (which has now sadly moved to pastures new :{ ), but the chance to get back on C172 would be greeted enthusiastically!

Mostly weekend flying for me, spare seats sometimes available for jaunts to the Islands, Ireland and the top end of the UK in general! Would also be interested in taking up spare seats and helping with Nav etc (willing to contribute!) to expand my horizons a bit further. I am also happy to go with either new PPLs or those with a bit more experience. Can travel to GLA / Cumbernauld if required.

Feel free to PM if any of this is of interest.

Happy flying,

Gregor.

(Edited because I forgot about the Night Quali the first time!!)

Hi there - Just wondering of anyone has any spare seats out of Denham. W Waltham, Blackbush, Fairoaks or Wycombe?

I've let my ICAO PPL expire and just waiting to start again (JAR this time). So just getting back up to observe would be a great booster.

Thanks. :ok:

[aged]

Hi, in the summer there will be the occasional empty seat in a 152 flying out of Perth (Scotland, not Aus). You can either come along for the experience for a wee bit of cost share or, if a licence holder, share longer trips, eg down west coast to Ireland and back up through England etc

[FlyEJF]

Hi there,

I am thinking about starting my PPL in the near future and would love to join someone on a flight. I haven't flown in a light GA aircraft before so it would be good to become aquainted.

I live in North Bedfordshire, close to Cranfield but will travel (within reason)

I will be more than happy to spilt the costs.

Cheers

Ed

My wife was to fly with me to Cork from Blackbushe this weekend, but owing to an illness in the family cannot go now(nothing to do with my flying, honest!).
Planning to leave Blackbushe in the PA28 Sat 27 or Sun 28, and return Mon 29. You will have to arrange your own accommodation in Cork.
I will need confirmation by thurs am so that the forms can be completed in time.
Will probably stop at Haverfordwest on the way.

P.S. If I don't get a flight there's a spare seat in my Landy for anyone who wants it. 1st come ,1st served, and don't get any ideas of a luxury ride, as its a Defender.

Ben (scrounger) Coulthard

Free seat (and free entry to Aeroexpo) available Sat 24th June from Upfield Farm (South Wales). (Sorry Ben, only 1 seat available & it'd be quite a detour to Halifax :hmm: )

BIGGIN HILL
If any PPL holder has a spare seat on any flight out of Biggin Hill I'd be very grateful. I'm 8 hours into my PPL course and the oppertunity to ask some questions, watch how trips are done and listen in on some RT would be excellent.
I would of course share any expenses.

Cheers

ooooh thanks, I really must remember to take those eye pills. :P

[angusrodger]

I love being in and around helicopters, and (of course!) flying them. I got a PPL in sunny California, and because of my US licence until now I've done all my flying on holidays in the States. I've notched up around 100 hours, mostly in a Schweizer 300 (Hughes 269). I've also flown a Jet Ranger a couple of times, which was "awesome", an R22 and an R44.

I've often thought that there must be loads of empty seats flying around the UK, and wondered whether some of the pilots would be happy to have some company and perhaps even let me do a spot of flying myself (subject to any licence issues). And then I stumbled across this thread - great idea!

I'm a well-travelled, professional 38 year old, and probably reasonable company (at least for the first hour or so!). I live in Ealing and work in the city. I never got a car, but can get to anywhere that's serviced by public transport.

If anyone would be willing to give me either some cheap flying experience in the UK, or the chance to participate in an interesting flight somewhere, then I'd be delighted to hear from you.

Cheers!

Angus

[Mariner9]

I might (subject to usual aviation vagueries of weather and other family member's plans) have a free spare seat available this Saturday morning for a flight from a farm strip near Newport S Wales to Sherlowe, then onto Hawarden. One way seat only however (am collecting pax at Hawarden), you'll have to get the train back (could arrange lift to Chester station)

[kalooli]

Regular spare seats Blackpool.
This is a whole year and some later, but .. do you still do spare seats?
I am learning to fly from Blackpool, but both of our aeroplanes are out of action for two weeks :ugh: . Do you care for somebody to come along in the right hand seat a couple of times?

[bellend]

Angus

I live in Greenford and fly out of Denham,Maybe you should join the pilot center at Denham as a social member £25 as there are plenty of solo flyers ,myself included that would take you . I would offer now but as I dont know you am a bit dubious ,

Edit No rotaries at TPC though

[VH-WTF]

Hi All,

[CyberSoft]

Hi All,

38 year old professional male, I'm very interested in doing PPL soon and have always had a keen interest in flight, (flown 172 and 152 in the past) would be interested in spare seat flying as an observer with anybody who would like some company over Scotland, preferably central belt, eg, Scone, Glenrothes, Dundee, Edinburgh, Portmoak, Cumbernauld etc. I'm also a keen photographer and would like to take some aeriel photos of anything below (I do a lot of photos for jetphotos.net). Not interested in any specific routes, happy just to go along for the flight (distance no object). Prepared to share any costs involved or pay my way (within reason). PM or email me if interested. :ok:

[Deano777]

Just finished my CPl/ME IR, and would be interested in any spare seats going in the Gloucestershire area?

I am about to do 40hrs of hour building before my CPL/IR from Staverton, you are more than welcome to hitch a ride or 2 (or 10), you never know, I may even learn something from you which will be a bonus :) PM me if you are interested.

That applies to anyone who would like to hitch a ride, will mainly be flying the CPL routes but still have my 300nm cross country to do yet, may go over the water somewhere, so if you fancy an adventure send me a PM

Hi bellend. Thanks for this. Btw, what's TPC? Cheers, Angus

[bellend]

TPC=The Pilot Center,North side of Denham Airfield near where all the rotaries are , I couldnt recommend this place enough,family run knowledgable instructors etc sometimes a very busy tight circuit no overhead joins only via exended base then sharp turn at 500-600 for final,good fun

Anyone heading to/from Dinard or Rennes way in the near future ?
200hr PPL with Cross channel experience would appreciate coming along for the ride and share costs and or flying, one way or return. Location flexible through southern UK.

[wsmempson]

Wll, I've done the run to Cherbourg a few times now - pm me if you'd like to hear more or come along?

[Smiffie]

I've just completed my PPL(H) in the home counties and love all things heli, shame I can't afford to fly too much over here, having exhausted all my funds getting to the PPL stage !

I would always be interested in a seat, particularly with those have lots of experience and are willing to impart knowledge, I'd even be happy in the back ! I work shifts so am often available weekdays if anyone has a local bimble or interesting day trip planned from somewhere in the home counties and wants company, plus a share of costs. I could probably even support 60 minutes of conversation at a push !

Now has anyone out there got a Gazelle they can take me in ?

[Andy_RR]

I've a never-yet-used PPL(A) as I've been away in India for a few months since I passed my GST. TBH, it feels like I still need to learn to fly at the moment, so getting some RHS time would be great.

I'm going to try for a tailwheel rating whilst I'm back in the county (if the weather turns good), but in the mean time, if anyone is looking for a cost-sharer to occupy the RHS, I'm happy to drive a reasonable distance radius from Northampton to join you. Any time, week or weekend up to 3rd Sept. Just PM me and I'll do my best to make it.

Cheers

All,

Does anyone here know plaa343, aka Steve?

I organised to go flying with him on Wed, 3 hour return trip to find him not there and plane not booked. I have left several messages on his mobile (which the school confirmed was the correct mobile number for him) but no reply, and now the mobile gives number unobtainable?

Id like to at least know he is ok! I'm not on a witch hunt or anything for him not turning up, just a bit disapointed that I didn't get to have some fun in the firefly!

Cheers
Kev

[stickandrudderman]

I've had a similar experience having responded to offers on this thread, although my disappointment was not even getting the courtesy of a response from someone offering me a trip via a PM.
Come on people, if your offering to share flying time with anyone, have some honour for yourself and respect for those that respond.:ugh: := :confused:

[Shunter]

I fly out of Leeds/Bradford regularly, although as I haven't found a group in the area yet I'm still hiring so can't afford to get up as much as I'd like. Generally used to miles of concrete, but I'm also pretty handy with short bumpy farm strips aswell!

Anyone who fancies chipping in for the cost and joining me is welcome. Usually fly 152/172. Prefer someone who's happy to meet up for a pint beforehand (not directly beforehand, obviously!) so we both know we're talking to a genuine non-fruitcake t'interweb timewaster.

By the same token if anyone else flying in the area is in need of some company I'm more than happy to join them go halves on expenses.

[pistongone]

rmac and Shunter, check your PM's.

[Supermattt]

Hello all,

I'll continue to check this board for specific opportunities but thought I'd put myself forward as interested in going along for any flying within reasonable distance from central London (hours train ride or so). I'm a lifelong enthusiast finally making the descision to get into actual flying. As such I am very keen to be around planes and pilots in order to get more familiar with everything and better judge how exactly to go about getting that PPL and beyond.

Happy to share costs of course.

I'm going to the GATBASH next weekend

Cheers
Matt

[tiggermoth]

I'd be delighted to share costs as a passenger to fly from Barton / Manchester.

I'm learning towards my PPL, and would love to experience GA flying.

[crap pilot]

I fly from Barton and would be happy to share flights. I usually go at short notice but dont mind planning flights a few days before hand. No need to share costs although if people are willing to then we could go twice as far. Anybody interested should just PM me.

[Hour Builder]

I am a 130 hour PPL pilot, with next to no experience in the UK. I have FAA IR, and am happy with RT in USA, but who wouldn't be?? I would like to sit in right seat and listen to RT in all sorts of airspace.

Closest airfield to me is Redhill. Although I would travel to Blackbushe and Dunsfold. I am happy to pay towards costs, although money is tight.

HB

[sparks-flying]

Also fly out of Barton regularly and often have a spare seat available in a Cessna 150.

I am flying to Mami on the 7th of Jan 07, and the making my way to Naples Air Center for the 10th of Jan where I have booked an Alarus CH 2000. I plan to do some hour building and am going to fly from Florida to Las Vages and back over 2 weeks.

I posting this to see if anyone is up for coming with me, as I figure 2 pilots are better than 1, for saftey reasons, and company. I plan to fly around 5hrs a day, and will have the plane for 2 weeks.

I do not expect any payment for this adventure,(you will have to pay for your own flight to the USA!) just share the costs on any accomidation we use on the way, and of course, feed and water yourselfs.

Please contact me at [email protected] for any more info or questions.

I am 24yrs old have a PPL and Night Rating, I have around 80hrs. I am a student ATPL starting Oxford in Feb 07.

Cheers Ryan............... :rolleyes:

I would like to find some one here in the Waikato, NZ who has a spare helicopter seat from time to time to learn from or help out when it comes to cleaning the machine or hangar I have been doing it part-time for the last year with the mighty Bell 222 so Im not new to safety procedures in and around helicopters or OAA's (Operational Aircraft Areas) I want to get a better insight into different areas of operation with helicopters so I have a better understanding when I start my PPL(H) hopefully next year before working my way to CPL(H) PM if interested or know some one who is.

I may have missed the plot a bit on this forum regarding the implications of 'borrowing' or 'renting' an aeroplane from another individual. I have not, admittedly, studied all the CAA rules and regs on the subject. It would be of great interest to me to negotiate the 'loan' of an aircraft in the Warrior or Cessna172 category so that I can visit many of my old haunts in the north of Scotland without having to worry about paying for downtime. You would be lending/leasing your precious aircraft to a highly experienced pilot (22000 hours on most things from paragliders to 747s)
I'd be most obliged to have anyone's feedback on the practicality of this request.
Thank you and Seasons Greetings to all.

i think you'll find that JAR OPS states that to "borrow" or "rent" someone elses aircraft you actually need 23000 hours...oh well :ok:

Anyone ever got a reply, or flight.....?
Yea 3 or 4 over a couple of years - only had one major let down - Drove for an hour only to find the guy hadn't turned up or even booked the plane and then he disappeared of the face of the earth ever since!

Hopefully I'll be on the other side of the fence soon - 1 hour solo nav left to do till I finish my Fixed wing NPPL M, only problem is I have been trying to do that hour since October but the weather and waterloged runways have been against me!

[finalapproach]

Well, I posted in May or June last year to say that I flew out of Biggin Hill and was happy to take anyone along any time I flew and a guy who is looking to convert his Canadian CPL into a Jar ATPL(f) contacted me and we have flown about 3 times on some great trips - one was to Leeds Bradford - so it does work. We'd have flown a lot more were we not both a bit hard up and restricted as to how often we could fly. I'm looking forward to some rides on the jump seat in return once he gets his dream job flying big boys toys!

[unfazed]

Got a reply

Exchanged e-mails and telephone calls

All sounded very straightforward but no flight ever materielised ????:confused:

[On the Spot]

Is anyone out there in the vicinity of London willing to donate a hour or so flight for a charity raffle prize winner to ride along ?
We are holding a charity auction at a Burns Supper on Jan 25th, in aid of charities in the Heathrow area and would like to offer as many aviation related prizes as possible.
Dates would have to be mutually agreed of course but the main thing so as not to disappoint the winner would be that you are able to commit to doing this and to sharing contact details.
Please PM me if you are willing to help and I will respond with more details.
Safe flying !

Just a quick repost. I will be in Europe for most of February and hopefully part of March, anyone who fancies a flight out of LEGE or LFMP sometime and is flexible about date and time (as in, given 24hr notice) drop me a PM.

Alternatively, anyone who is interested in splitting costs for a longish (say, over 6hr) trip from somewhere to somewhere else and back, and as long as neither somewhere is in the UK, drop me a PM.
