But which one - there doesn't seem to be an 'aircrew' forum, just airline specific forums (no RyanAir sadly), and a cabin crew forum. Did you mean that one? If so why - do they bite? :)

Hi Knobby,

It was a very good event, unfortunately we had to leave early so didn't get to experience it all.

PA38,

See Irv Lee's web site FAQ's on the PPL and NPPL. He answers that very question. I think the bottom line (financially) is that you will have to pay a one-off fee for the issue of a new...

Its pro and cons again - £2 per landing (as it was at Leeds for the LBA-based flying clubs before they doubled it), adds only a few percent to the overall cost of training. I don't know how...

Evo7,

Indeed - I just checked the BBC web-site for their schedule. Seems my TV guide gave erroneous times from 21:00 to 22:00. But I won't pull the posting or it will kill the entire thread.
