Try Albert Whittle in St Petersburg Tampa Fla
last year it was about $55 for a C172. Didn't enquire about block rates.
Good Luck

For Bottle2throttle

When were you at Anglo American? I was there August last year. My instructor was the chap who was unfortunately killed in an accident in October. I wondered if you'd heard anything more about it?

Thanks a lot for the replies people - great help.

Lemoncake, I was there from the begining of July to the start of August.

I hadn't heard anything about any accident!!
I'm also quite worried . One of my friends last year became an instructor recently after I left, could you e-mail me and tell me more http://www.pprune.org/ubb/NonCGI/eek.gif
