Check out the FTOs listed in Standard Documents 31

WLAC at Waltham, BAFC/WAC at Wycombe-Booker and On-Track at Wellesbourne are easily accessed via M40. Cranfield is just within the 50 mile limit also.

And another to consider is DEFTS at Barkston Heath. Cool a/c, RAF style teaching (and it may even be cheaper) .

My vote has to go to On Track as well. They run first class training and are fair priced.
