Benefits of the Recession and flying?
With all the gloom about the economy has it curtailed your flying activities?
In the heady days car fuel was £1. 10 p a litre now its dropped to 87p per litre.
Interest rates are tiny for those who can borrow.
If you are renting then maybe you can get a better deal?
The big downer is exhange rates which must be stopping us buying aircraft in dollars or going to the USA for training /holidays.
I am interested to know whether as pilots we are pulling in the belts or whether some of the benefits are tempting for us to fly more.
Maybe there is no change?
