Advanced Farm Strips Course in the welsh borders.
Training can be done over three days or to suit your requirements - (approximately 8 flying hours) at £230 per hour.
Ground briefings and landing fees included.

I am based in Herefordshire with a few local air strips near by that are available for use.
We will fly over spectacular countryside and really improve your flying skills by experiencing different farm strips,
including one in the welsh mountains.
This is great 'stick and rudder' flying, with the many challenges of short field landings, un-level strips and un-even ground.

A holiday cottage is also available so why not bring along your partner or the whole family for a break away from the routine.
Note that tail wheel training could be done at your local airfield if required, just call to discuss the options on 07855409512.
