Training @ Dunkeswell
Hi All
I am looking to take a holiday down in Somerset for a couple of weeks in September and am looking to continue my PPL training whilst there - probably more opportunity without the three W's (Wife, Work & Wean!).
I have alrady taken three exams (Airlaw, HPL & Aircraft General) and have completed a couple of solo sessions. What "evidence of training" etc would I need to take with me besides my logbook??
I have looked over DSFT's website and they have a PA28-160 which should be comparable to the 181 that I am used to up here - any major differences??
Are there any other schools that operate out of Dunkeswell?
I will be contacting DSFT this week for further information and with a view to booking time with an instructor.
Any other comments would be welcome..
Cheers

Nice school, I did a C152 to C172 conversion there at the start of this year. Friendly people and instructors.
I think DSFT is the only fixed-wing school on the field apart from Somerset Microlights (who I'm pretty sure can't do full PPL training).
As for evidence you need to take, I would have thought your logbook should be sufficient. The best evidence of training is your standard of flying! Do bring a record of the written exams you've taken though.
