   Was part of the club aged 15-16, Indy Singh was my teacher at the time offering little to no help. Seeing me as more of a nuisance then a young student. Receptionist was patronising when I suggested after 8 hours training I still wasn't ready to fly. They may have improved now but definitely just wanted money and not interested in actual teaching.

   Had a great trial flight in a Cessna 152. They might be basic, but are easy to handle and forgiving. It was a much better experience going from a proper airport, even had to wait for a Ryanair 737 to land up close before we could go. I had a hour flight and had loads of hands on, even flew the approach down to 400 feet, with a bit of help. My instructor, Tim, was really good giving me more to try as I improved, plus took over when I wanted to take photos. I'd happily recommend Donair for this sort of flight experience.
