A mate of mine lives north of Bath. He wants to obtain a PPL, with a view to keeping something very light and STOLlie on the field next to his charming country house. The nearest licensed airfields are Kemble and Filton. Old Sarum would be more of a schlep, but not out of the question in one of his amusing sports cars. Where should he train? You will have gathered from hints above that cash is not an issue with this guy. Acquiring a good training, that will stand him in good stead for participation in grass roots style aviation, is.
I have landed at Old Sarum a couple of times and formed a good impression of the club there, but of Kemble and Filton I know nothing. All comments and suggestions gratefully received.
Edit: if you wish to engage in robust criticism of any of the available options, whilst sparing the blushes of the guilty and keeping Danny's legal bills at a sensible level, please don't post here but email me at my pprune address, which is FNG@whatever the rest is.
