Hi all,
I've just moved away from my regular airfield to the Western extremes of London. Of course I've been checking alot of websites and (when I get settled with some time) will visit a few airfields but...
Does anyone have any personal information and feelings/suggestions about an airfield in the area that has a decent aerobatic aircraft for hire (at a reasonable rate - Extra 300s are out the question despite my heart skipping a beat at the mention of them!). I've been flying the T67M recently and before that have flown Bulldogs/Grob 115E/152 aerobat (hmmm!). Looking for something interesting and fun (very specific aren't I!?!).
Additional preferences are:
1. A nice atmosphere as would love to get involved in a club (never have to date but think it is time to put apprehensions aside and try and get in there!). Or even a sports flyers club or strong-contingent of aero enthusiasts who are open and welcoming would be great!
2. Possibly a club that can also train for my CPL later this year (although travelling further for that is not important so feel free to disregard!)
Thanks to you all!
CS :ok:
