Currently instructing from Ultra light basic flying through PPL to advanced ratings IFR + CPL specialising in getting pilots into the Airlines. Aviation has been good to me, teaching me many things over the years, (and still learning), so now I have the opportunity to pass on something of that knowledge and experience to help others to get where they want to go … (I couldn’t do it without God’s help (Psalm 127:1) including the help of my lovely wife Rhoda as Office manager)
