Thanks for correcting my mistake PigeonVoyageur. Did not know about the one in Coventry and am also relieved that the Captain mentioned is not in Cork. What would they be thinking of taking that person on.
I still stand by what i said about the aircraft that AFTA have

Not in Ireland

I would say go to a CAA school in the USA. There is no point in doing an integrated course in Ireland unless you live in Ireland might be good to study for written. Better off with CAA licence everything is cheaper and easier to renew if its CAA.

Apologies for being so late but have you tried the Ulster Flying Club in Newtownards, County Down, Northern Ireland or is that too far away?
It's got a good reputation and I'm doing my PPL there.

PPL Cork

Hi,

I live in Wexford and looking to do my PPL. Can anyone tell me where to do it in Cork? If so can you tell me a little about the School and instructors. Also If you know of anywhere around Wexford that would be great?

Thanks.

Certain school in Dublin invest nothing in their aircraft (ancient) with instructors who seem more interested in chain smoking & cursing. It's quiet far from professional US standards and they don't know the difference to change. If you pay for flying, demand service or walk.

Hi talltree101 - if you are from Wexford, I strongly recommend Waterford Aero Club for the PPL (and night rating + hour building if you are heading towards CPL. Not only are they closer than Cork or Weston, they have more competitive prices and a fantastic bunch of instructors and Club members.
