IR help

Hi all.

Can you please suggest a place to do my IR in the UK on the DA-42?

Thank you all in advance.

The only place I know of is Stapleford
Stapleford Flight Centre - Professional flight training and private flying lessons, London, Essex, UK
They're very well known and it's busy airspace.

Why do you so desperately need to train on the DA42?

Stapleford looks quite good and has a good reputation but you need to take the actual IR test at Cranfield for a reason and that puts me off as no other flights are conducted there except the actual test.

I choose the DA-42 as you have asked is the glass cockpit.

Yes, but at Stapelford you spend half the time or more in the Sim, pretending that you are at Cranfield.
