Thank you!
Good stuff. I had a run through with the instructor around two before setting off again on my own after we returned. I’m looking forward to a trip to Caernarfon once I qualify.
What did you fly in?

I've got a share in a PA-28, G-BCCF. You might have seen it on the apron sometime. It's white and blue
I know I'm paranoid - that's why they're watching me!

I have seen her! Very nice. I’m learning in a PA28-140, mostly G-BSLU or occasionally G- ASSW

Hi George, just started PPl where you are, only 4 lessons in, can I ask why you splashed the extra cash to learn in PA 28 rather than the tommy?

Good question! I when I first started (at a different school) it was advised that as I was carrying a few extra pounds that the weight of me, the instructor and full fuel was going to exceed mauw. Hence the pa28. Now I didn’t think I was THAT heavy! (15st at the time, bit less now) anyway got used to the pa28 and stuck with it.

Ah makes sense then that you stuck with it, you seem to be doing very well judging by your posts, keep letting us know how your getting on, Peter

Not at all! I’m very happy with my school and instructors! Just in case anyone didn’t want to talk publicly!

Hi All. I thought it time for an update. I've just come back from a month in Portugal, !mostly business but some, well quite a bit of, escapism.
So on my first day back to blighty I popped along to Headcorn and spent a pleasant hour with my Instructor going through the course, checking out the ride and booking up my first lesson.
I also received my Class 1 in the post !!
I can't wait til the flying really commences.
