I plan to do some flying at Gamston during the festive season. Can anyone recommend where to hire an aircraft (C152, C172) from?

Thanks

There are a few options at Gamston:-

The Flight Centre 01777 838222

ALH Skytrain 01777 838202

I think both do temporary membership (£40/year annual memb. at
The Flight Centre)

Both of the above share 2 x C152's @ £70/tacho hour PPL hire
and a C172 £84/tacho hour PPL hire.

There is another alternative if you fancy a Katana:-
DiamondAir 01777 839200

Check flights and hire is also available from The Flight Centre and
ALH Skytrain.

Also for hire is a PA28-236 Dakota if you need to get somewhere quick and also a Slingsby Firefly if you want to get somewhere quick upside down!!!

I'll be there too over Chrimbo.

What about Netherthorpe? (Nethersludge) Phoenix Flying School
have 4 x C150's @ £60/hour PPL hire and no membership fees. Brush up on your short field technique!!!
