Tropair, Biggin Hill vs Cubair, Redhill

Anyone have recent feedback (good or otherwise) on Tropair vs Cubair? I'm looking for private rental but want to have some lessons to begin with to get used to UK airspace etc.

Redhill is a good place to learn about UK airspace! I haven't flown with Cubair, but I went to see them once and it looked like a friendly operation.

Hi,

I don't know anything about Tropair, but can confirm that Cubair is a friendly place. (I did my training with them & our Slingsby uses their facilities)

The aeroplanes are well maintained, the staff friendly, and the instructors knowledgeable.

Regards,

Hello,

I had a trial lesson with Cubair on their C172 G-BIDF, and was pleased with the club. Very welcoming and friendly, they will certainly give you the attention required. And flying from Redhill is quite interesting too with Gatwick just around the corner.
