Student pilot looking for spare seats
 

Hi all,

I'm a 26yo student pilot working towards my PPL and beyond, but I'm unable to commit to regular lessons until my Wife finishes her studying later this year.:} So meanwhile I'd love to like to fill some empty space on any fixed wing a/c in the South/South East to learn a little from obversation. Maybe I can help to reduce the high cost of fuel in return and provide more in depth conversation than NATS during the flight :)

I'm based in Portsmouth, so anything close to there, or around Hampshire and London would be ideal.

Looking to share costs/gain experience
 

Hi im looking for oppurtunities to cost share my flying or be able to just come along for the ride:) The reason for asking is that i want be able to fly further than just my local area:8 and gain some more experience by landing at new airfields, as having a weekend job at smiths only allows for about an hour and a half a month:{ (work sundays)
I am 17 years old and in my first year of A-levels:rolleyes: Just recently passed my PPL have about 58hrs total. Planes flown inlcude the DA20, C172, PA28 and i currently fly the DA40 (Best plane ive ever been in:}) I fly out of shoreham but i can travel to any local airfileds such as Goodwood, Redhill and Biggin would all be great

Cheers

Sound Barrier - does that mean you're in NZ?
 

If so, where?

Hi,

I'm currently in training for my PPL. I started last August at the age of 16 and now have 15 hours gained now. I usually fly a PA38 from Liverpool airport, but would appreciate time in any aircraft.

If anyone is currently able to assist with increasing my experience in the RHS of any aircraft within the Wirral or Cheshire region I would be very greatful.

and of course I would be happy to split the costs.
Please PM me if you can help

Thanks

HI
Wx permitting I need to take my toy to Bidford tomorrow and return home minus toy on wednesday or thursday. Anyone leaving UK either from around Bidford (near Stratford on Avon) or alternatively Luton area with France for destination. Ideally somewhere near Poitiers but anywhere in central or western france?
Happy to buy gourmet meals and pay landing fees. If you happen to drop me off at Chauvigny I can even offer a night or two's lodging. I am a very good cook, too :ok:

Spare seat anywhere in North West
 

Hi. I'd appreciate some flight experience with anyone flying in the North West. Happy to help out with any costs. Please PM me. Thanks.

That toy wouldn't happen to be Super Cub G-BPUL, which I noticed in the main hangar at Chauvigny when I was there last month?

Yes, that toy is indeed G-BPUL. Has a need for annual, star (it's annex two) and the generator fixing. I got back by bumming a lift to Portsmouth, then a very expensive ferry to Caen. My poor long suffering husband came to collect me at Caen.
When the generator comes back in a couple of weeks I will need a lift TO UK if you are likely to be in the area. The gourmet meal offer etc still stand :)

Hi P-classique, did you find a lift ?

Will.

Thanks Will. I got home OK, need to go to UK but don't yet know when, depends on the A/C being ready for collection

Hi there, I fly DA40's/PA28's from shoreham.Im looking to split the cost of flying as the credit crunch is really starting to bite! I fly abt 1-2 hours a month,maybe more depending on pocket and Wx.

Also if anyones down at KA and got a perfectly good seat going to waste please let me know!

Spare seat/ build hours
 

I am looking for a spare seat or someone wanting to build their hours up, I am wanting to go on a trip to Spain in the near future, so if there is a spare seat or if you would like to build your hours let me know. If you want to build hours I am willing to pick up the costs plus sort any accommodation out you would need.

Hi

I'm a 19yr old PPL hour building towards the CPL, I currently have 76 hours and have pic'd to airports between le Touquet and Leicester, but now I am looking to team up with somebody to help share the costs involved in very long distance flights so I can really push some boundaries.

I am based at wycombe air park, and have ratings for the cessna 152 and 172 skyhawk. Please PM me if you are interested, one of us flying one leg and the other flying the return, 50/50 costs.

Thanks

Hi,

one question, I'm from Poland and maybe we have some other JARs but how do You guys log this "shared cost" hours or "one leg me/one leg you" hours, who's the boss then ? (PIC :) ) and what counts ???

P.S. can safety pilot log any hours ?

Sharing hours
 

P1 can change during flight ( for instance a NPPL'er flying UK to France can fly to the coast or maybe even the FIR boundary) and than hand control to the guy in the other seat.This is not the usual understanding of cost/hours sharing ( as it raises the issue of P1 flying from the RHS,usually the preserve of instructors)they normally take the form of you fly it there and I'll fly it back type of thing.

If by safety pilot you mean someone that has basic training but does not hold a licence,they could only log hours if flying with a current flight instructor.

Prob best to move this to the general Private Flying area if any extended debate appears.
MM

Any spare seats going in the Tyne & Wear and surrounding areas (Durham etc)?
I'm 14 and want to get the experience of sitting in a light aircraft and will probably have a noisy listen to ATC transmissions. :E

Any offers please PM me, Obviously because of my age a adult will have to come with me, so please state whether a 'club area' is available or not. :ugh:

HI

Flying 1-2 hrs per month out of Staverton on PA-28s. Anyone looking to cost-share?:ok:

Hiya,
I'm strongly considering taking my NPPL (see my other thread), in the meantime I'd love to go flying with someone willing to take me - my local airfield is Compton Abbas, anyone based there? I'm happy to share costs, buy lunch etc :)

Rich

I could have sworn I'd posted this once already but it didn't show up, so here it is again!

I'm considering taking my NPPL at Compton Abbas and would really like to go flying with someone who's qualified and willing to take me.

I'm happy to share costs, buy lunch etc

Rich :)

PBV, I might be interested in flying out of Staverton with you, I've only recently got my PPL (actually, still waiting for the paperwork just now) but if that's not a problem for you ... send me a PM with your contact details and I'll be in touch.

Spare Seat Wanted Yorkshire area
 

Hi,

I am PPL student (at last gone solo.......... 28 hours :confused:). I currently try to fly every week or two in a PA28 from Sandtoft. I am looking to get more air experience, especially on Navigation. More than happy to cost share or buy the coffees.

PM me if poss.

Thanks for reading

To most people the sky is the limit..... to pilots its a playground!

Any shuttleworth flyers or anyone within the bedfordshire area with a spare seat that i could possibly take up? Would be of inspirational value and may even be worth a good old sold pint!

Flying in Suffolk
 

We have a Socata Rallye, the wifes toy, have thought about putting out to shares but not sure in the current climate, its a great item to have but really needs to be skywards more.

So if you don't mind sitting in the RHs and going for a bimble over Suffolk give us a mail, aircrafts on a private strip near Sudbury, so whether your thinking about your ppl or just want to go and have a flight without mega commitments, just a shame to have that seat empty a lot of the time.

share of some costs would be appreciated, but can chat about things if anyones interested.

Alex & Linda

Hi PBV

I've sent you a pm about the cost sharing.

Cheers

Paul.

Flying North from London Sept 20th?
 

Hello,

I've nearly got my PPL. I'm going to walk Hadrian's Wall setting off from London on Friday 19th Sept. If Anyone happened to be planning a flight from anywhere in the South-East on Saturday 20th, to anywhere near Newcastle or anywhere along the way, I would be delighted to help navigate and cost share. Long shot I know, but if you don't ask....

Happy Flying!

Spare Seats from Blackbushe
 

Hi,

I'm looking for an experienced pilot to sit in the RHS of a C152, Archer or Turbo Arrow from Blackbushe. I'm a recently qualified PPL (already with turbo, retractable and vpp differences training) looking to build hours alongside someone with a little more experience. Also looking to stretch my wings abroad, so if anyone has experience flying in France/Germany that would be a bonus. No need to contribute, I'll pay for the flights.

Oz

Hi there,
Is there anyone who flys out of Biggin hill, Rochester, who wants to do some flying together.
Cheers Adam
