Trial Lesson on a modern trainer.
Young person wants to learn to fly (for pleasure) on a trainer that was at least built this century, or better still in the last decade. I am struggling to help him find a flying club/school within 100 miles of London that actually has a young fleet. Any recommendations please?

The S200 is a new design and only a couple of years old

Most part 141 flight schools over here are using diamonds or Cirruses.
The pilots that they produce aren’t as good (in my opinion, as a presumably disinterested observer) as the independent guys that do it in Cessnas, pipers, or (especially) beech sport iterations
