Does Anyone have recent experience with Doncaster Sheffield flying school ?

Steer well clear, a DSFS instructor was videoed spinning ( by his student ) over a city recently in an aircraft not rated to spin, not on a spinning lesson, just for kicks.
This may not mean much to you at your stage, but believe me you don't want it. |

Sandtoft is just up the road, Why not give them a ring & see if you like it there?

If the correct ethos was maintained that situation would not have happened. A CFI monitors his understudy instructors and advises what's acceptable from day one. This is NOT common behaviour.

As you seem to know wb9999, would it be true to say another instructor from DSFS was entering the circuit at Gamston, when an aircraft, faster than him/her was long established on final, clearly calling thus several times. When the DSFS aircraft pretty closely / dangerously cut them up causing many people to be annoyed . This was on the verge of being officially reported but was neatly swept under the carpet.
Yes or no ? Safety ethos. People in the area are entitled to their views and offer advice based on FACT. As to the instructor repeating his idiocy ,well that's an issue you've highlighted for his new club and as somebody else stated possibly the CAA. I've no further interest in this thread. :ugh: |

Justto lighten the mood,from my experience flying schools are like supermarkets, MandS down to Lidl, Lidl looks OK , even initially tastes alright, but sooner or later you'll pass your rotted intestine and it will hurt !

There was a huge thread about this place with lots of genuine issues, it was removed because somebody complained about something. Contained lots of stories.

Should a prospective student know about how a club operates ? Yes.

You should look at York Flying School and visit Breighton , give Sherburn, full Sutton and Sandtoft a look too. Big airfield flying often wastes lots of time, and time costs you money.

i 2nd Mickey at York flying school, he's just a nice guy plus good instruction there
oh by the way i have no affilaition with them, just a good club |
York Flying School
I second the praise, just passed my skills test with YFS. I got checked out by Cas Smith from Full Sutton and instructed by Steve Hall. Nothing to complain about, highly recommend. - Breighton is a fantastic airfield as well!

I 'm about to take my PPL I was wondering if any of you knew something about this Flight school ? I left this place, instructor was unbelievably rude, swearing in front of my kids etc.. got fed up with constant fuel runs to get cheaper stuff near retford, then i got charged for the privilege ! On one really windy flight i was only in control for maybe 20 mins all flight. Waste of money. I was told it was good "experience ". The guy moaned constantly about his boss and plane problems ! I tried to ring the boss Christian, no answer and he arrives so late i couldnt wait. Never was a club so OVERSOLD on the net, youd believe it was only 2nd to BA in terms of training from the tinternet. In reality the place is big enough for one student !! BAD EXP. |
Why do we have two posters Peter1234 7 posts and PETE1234 1 post seems that as soon as the name GoldenEaglePilot / Kevin Crellin is mentioned these threads turn into witch hunts and fact less slurs!
Whatever happened to that crook? Pace |
Crellin
Oh LORDY do we really have to go down the goldeneagle route AGAIN.
