Evil J,
I am glad there are controllers such as yourself out there who help us all in GA. I note from another thread, that Training Flights are now classified in the MATC as category Z - Basically, no priority, bottom of the heap, rather than just as a normal flight with normal priorities. So, will I now expect ATCOs to request me to classify my flight, on initial call, or will the "two on board, VFR to the East..." type of call still suffice. I suppose that it all depends on the commercial demands of the system.
How did it go up at Nottingham on Sunday?
I suggest Beer and Curry soon by the way. Perhaps get in some aviating too?
Cheers,
Blue Skies and Tailwinds......

Same as Barney and Flower...
When I learnt to fly I was taught to use "Tyro" and continued to do so for a little while after getting my licence. As has be mentioned already, it's a term that is not heard very often these days.
