Ah!!... 'The Inverness Courier'... the font of all knowledge and 'cat up a tree' jounalism!
The same paper that no doubt carried the headline 'Inverness man dies at sea' when the Titanic sank!

They have an excellent setup at Inverness, it's a shame to see things get to this level. I hope that it gets resolved amicably and quickly for the benefit of those who enjoy flying there.

Panic ye not.... They are still flying strong in the school and I can't book untill the end of December.... and they are great guys.
The more burning issue is what one gets for the £60 club fee !!! still waiting after 3 years to get any tangible benefit

Most places with a similar setup will have friction - it's hard to get a business and a group of individuals all pulling in the same direction at the same time. The current politics seems to have been taken a step further than normal, detracting from some good flying. Politics always seems to have that effect...

£60/YR for heat and briefing space for you and your trainer. Also a good view and plenty of relaxation space. Somewhere to make a cup of coffee and free landing fees. Internet access.
Sounds good to me.
Still welcome, but perhaps we should have let you know more clearly what you got for your money.
Enjoy flying

On the move
The building which is to be the new location for the flying school is in the final stages of preparation.It is close to the entrance to the airport and has parking adjacent. Facilities will include refreshments area, briefing room.Visitors will be welcome.
Meanwhile the school is using an office in the main terminal building, just ask at the information desk for access.The phone number used for contacting the school is still 01667 462226.
Do not be put off by any rumours, I often rent aircraft from the school and despite the upheaval of recent times I have been satisfied with the service and look forward to more flying in 2009.
