This will sound caustic, and I don't mean it that way, but personally, I avoid "cheap" aircraft. It could sound like you're looking for the "terribly maintained" "spam cans" which are spoken of so poorly around here.

"Basic", "Economical", "Entry level".....

We've all been there, trying to get the most for our flying dollar, but we all have our minimum standards too...

Best of luck, I'm confident you'll find something just right, and fly and pay for it with pride....

Aircraft Grouping do something similar, placing groups at airfields without the risk of total loss if there's a crash etc. Nothing down your way, but for people elsewhere in the UK some of the prices look pretty good (no links with them, but I've flown a couple of their aircraft and been in general happy with the standards).

I'm after a share in the east midlands area, Gamston, Tollerton, Leicester or any private strips.

If anyone knows of any going please let me know.

Cheers

There is always the North weald flying group at (surprise surprise) North Weald airfield and there is also a nice little DA20 there also, and i believe they have a vacancy.
