I live in Greenford and fly out of Denham,Maybe you should join the pilot center at Denham as a social member £25 as there are plenty of solo flyers ,myself included that would take you . I would offer now but as I dont know you am a bit dubious ,

Edit No rotaries at TPC though

Hi All,
If anyone is flying around LSZH or up into Germany(i'm under the 14 approach on the German side of the Rhine) with a spare seat let me know! I'm 21 with an Australian PPL.
Cheers!

Spare seat flying in Scotland
 
Hi All,

38 year old professional male, I'm very interested in doing PPL soon and have always had a keen interest in flight, (flown 172 and 152 in the past) would be interested in spare seat flying as an observer with anybody who would like some company over Scotland, preferably central belt, eg, Scone, Glenrothes, Dundee, Edinburgh, Portmoak, Cumbernauld etc. I'm also a keen photographer and would like to take some aeriel photos of anything below (I do a lot of photos for jetphotos.net). Not interested in any specific routes, happy just to go along for the flight (distance no object). Prepared to share any costs involved or pay my way (within reason). PM or email me if interested. :ok:

I am about to do 40hrs of hour building before my CPL/IR from Staverton, you are more than welcome to hitch a ride or 2 (or 10), you never know, I may even learn something from you which will be a bonus :) PM me if you are interested.

That applies to anyone who would like to hitch a ride, will mainly be flying the CPL routes but still have my 300nm cross country to do yet, may go over the water somewhere, so if you fancy an adventure send me a PM

Hi bellend. Thanks for this. Btw, what's TPC? Cheers, Angus

bellend 16th Jul 2006 12:54

TPC=The Pilot Center,North side of Denham Airfield near where all the rotaries are , I couldnt recommend this place enough,family run knowledgable instructors etc sometimes a very busy tight circuit no overhead joins only via exended base then sharp turn at 500-600 for final,good fun

Dinard / LFRD
 
Anyone heading to/from Dinard or Rennes way in the near future ?
200hr PPL with Cross channel experience would appreciate coming along for the ride and share costs and or flying, one way or return. Location flexible through southern UK.

wsmempson 18th Jul 2006 20:45

Wll, I've done the run to Cherbourg a few times now - pm me if you'd like to hear more or come along?

Smiffie 22nd Jul 2006 09:37

I've just completed my PPL(H) in the home counties and love all things heli, shame I can't afford to fly too much over here, having exhausted all my funds getting to the PPL stage !

I would always be interested in a seat, particularly with those have lots of experience and are willing to impart knowledge, I'd even be happy in the back ! I work shifts so am often available weekdays if anyone has a local bimble or interesting day trip planned from somewhere in the home counties and wants company, plus a share of costs. I could probably even support 60 minutes of conversation at a push !

Now has anyone out there got a Gazelle they can take me in ?

runway09 23rd Jul 2006 21:28

Hi. Im a new PPL student learning at Filton who is keen to spend as much time in the air as possible, whether it be flying or as a passenger. If anyone would like company and is based in the s/west or along the M4 corridor then PM me. Can do weekdays as well as weekends.
Thanks.

Lembrado 27th Jul 2006 08:08

Morning,


I live in the surrey area and am interested in any RHS flying. Available weekdays and weekends. Normally fly B757, haven't been in a light aeroplane for a while now - I miss it!

I'll supply tea and biscuits. Look forward to meeting you.

BRL 27th Jul 2006 10:23

I will be in Liverpool next Wednesday 2nd August if anyone will be about with a spare seat going. :)

Drop me an email [email protected]

No longer have the Aztec and Mooney (Aztec way too costly and Mooney at the bottom of the Med).

Just taken delivery of my new plane (new to me at least), so happy to fly for the sake of it right now.

Weekdays more often better for me.

May have a seat going in a Robin DR400 on a 3 day trip to and around Ireland on the 26th, 27th and possibly 28th of this month. Would appreciate contributions towards fuel, and own living expenses paid.

Bear in mind priority goes to a friend of mine who may or may not be able to come. PM if interested.

stickandrudderman 13th Aug 2006 13:43

I fly from Denham, usually in a PA28, although I have just got taildragger endorsement, which was fun! I also have complex endorsement and IMC. P1 hrs approaching 90.
Always keen to participate on a shared expense basis on trips of interest, especially to the continent for overnight stops.
Any day is OK with a weeks notice.
I like a laugh en route!

Pumper Bob,
Check your Pms

Andy_RR 21st Aug 2006 13:40

I've a never-yet-used PPL(A) as I've been away in India for a few months since I passed my GST. TBH, it feels like I still need to learn to fly at the moment, so getting some RHS time would be great.

I'm going to try for a tailwheel rating whilst I'm back in the county (if the weather turns good), but in the mean time, if anyone is looking for a cost-sharer to occupy the RHS, I'm happy to drive a reasonable distance radius from Northampton to join you. Any time, week or weekend up to 3rd Sept. Just PM me and I'll do my best to make it.

Cheers

Girona
 
Out of curiousity, is there anyone in the Girona (LEGE) area who would like to hitch the odd ride? I'll be doing a bit of flying here in the next few months.

plaa343 23rd Aug 2006 07:47

Spare seat available for anyone wishing to fly out of Cambridge in a high performance private aircraft (SEP). Fly regularly and am prepared to cost-share with anyone who is interested. PM me for more details as I do not want to appear to be advertising.

rocketboots 23rd Aug 2006 14:02

PPL 155 tt.44 faa instrument. Would love to fly rhs with anybody out on the south coast areas.

rmac 27th Aug 2006 07:06

Flying in Slovakia
 
I keep a C303 Crusader in Stefanik-Bratislava, (you can get there cheaply on EasyJet or Ryanair). Fly in the beautiful local mountains or trips to Austria, Hungary and Croatian coast.

All types of pilots welcome, I like good company while flying, and sharing good ideas helps broaden the mind.

I'm expat brit, but am happy in a couple of other languages too..

Just drop me a mail if interested.

Red Top Comanche 28th Aug 2006 19:10

Leaving early, returning Wednesday afternoon (30th)

All,

Does anyone here know plaa343, aka Steve?

I organised to go flying with him on Wed, 3 hour return trip to find him not there and plane not booked. I have left several messages on his mobile (which the school confirmed was the correct mobile number for him) but no reply, and now the mobile gives number unobtainable?

Id like to at least know he is ok! I'm not on a witch hunt or anything for him not turning up, just a bit disapointed that I didn't get to have some fun in the firefly!

Cheers
Kev

stickandrudderman 1st Sep 2006 20:27

All talk and no action.
 
I've had a similar experience having responded to offers on this thread, although my disappointment was not even getting the courtesy of a response from someone offering me a trip via a PM.
Come on people, if your offering to share flying time with anyone, have some honour for yourself and respect for those that respond.:ugh: := :confused:

Shunter 3rd Sep 2006 16:01

I fly out of Leeds/Bradford regularly, although as I haven't found a group in the area yet I'm still hiring so can't afford to get up as much as I'd like. Generally used to miles of concrete, but I'm also pretty handy with short bumpy farm strips aswell!

Anyone who fancies chipping in for the cost and joining me is welcome. Usually fly 152/172. Prefer someone who's happy to meet up for a pint beforehand (not directly beforehand, obviously!) so we both know we're talking to a genuine non-fruitcake t'interweb timewaster.

By the same token if anyone else flying in the area is in need of some company I'm more than happy to join them go halves on expenses.

pistongone 4th Sep 2006 07:57

rmac and Shunter, check your PM's.

Supermattt 17th Sep 2006 14:46

Hello all,

I'll continue to check this board for specific opportunities but thought I'd put myself forward as interested in going along for any flying within reasonable distance from central London (hours train ride or so). I'm a lifelong enthusiast finally making the descision to get into actual flying. As such I am very keen to be around planes and pilots in order to get more familiar with everything and better judge how exactly to go about getting that PPL and beyond.

Happy to share costs of course.

I'm going to the GATBASH next weekend

Cheers
Matt

tiggermoth 21st Sep 2006 21:49

Barton / Manchester
 
I'd be delighted to share costs as a passenger to fly from Barton / Manchester.

I'm learning towards my PPL, and would love to experience GA flying.

crap pilot 22nd Sep 2006 14:23

I fly from Barton and would be happy to share flights. I usually go at short notice but dont mind planning flights a few days before hand. No need to share costs although if people are willing to then we could go twice as far. Anybody interested should just PM me.

Hour Builder 24th Sep 2006 13:12

I am a 130 hour PPL pilot, with next to no experience in the UK. I have FAA IR, and am happy with RT in USA, but who wouldn't be?? I would like to sit in right seat and listen to RT in all sorts of airspace.

Closest airfield to me is Redhill. Although I would travel to Blackbushe and Dunsfold. I am happy to pay towards costs, although money is tight.

HB

sparks-flying 25th Sep 2006 08:12

Also fly out of Barton regularly and often have a spare seat available in a Cessna 150.
If anyone is interested PM me and I will get in touch.

stickandrudderman 30th Sep 2006 08:07

I have just taken the plunge and done the transition training at TAA at denham to fly the SR22.
What a fantastic machine!
It's a little expensive but........
Anyone who wants to come for a ride and share costs is welcome.
:)

pistongone 4th Oct 2006 07:55

Full Sutton.
 
I am flying out of Full Sutton on Saturday, going over to Barton to check out the group flying people there. Anyone who wants to come send me a message. Would probably like to have a run up the coast to Cark after for a cuppa, then back to Full Sutton.

Stall-turn-Go 4th Oct 2006 13:15

Andrewsfield
 
Hi all,

Great thread idea!
I fly out of Andrewsfield, not all too regularly due to finance so it'd be great to hear from anyone who'd like to buddy up. Also anyone flying from other airfields in the area.

Cheers
