Hi, does anyone know where you can convert to and then hire out a chipmunk in the south west?

They have a stunning Chippy in the fleet (G-APLO) on lease from Air Atlantique - you can do your tail-wheel conversion and then solo hire the aircraft - it's about £130ph wet from what I remember the last time I took her out.

OK, so not exactly the South West, but one of the few (only) places I found to train and hire the Chippy. Pick up a cheap flight from Exeter, Plymouth or Southampton (or get the fast ferry at Weymouth or Poole) and stay in one of the budget B&B's - well worth it.

If you go next week, may see you there

Advertised as dual only, £150ph, but there is one at Eaglescott

Allbeit in the NE corner of the South West, this one is just about to go on-line at Enstone for tailwheel conversion:
