Thanks for the comments guys
I flew from Golden Hill in Northamptonshire. I've been doing my training with Paul Taylor of Av8er who is a fantastic instructor, and all the guys down there are very friendly and welcoming!
I have a busy one this weekend Simon but definately look forward to flying in the local area soon if and when you're free, my number is 07540 808 698. I'm still on the hunt for a good site around the area so I'll keep everyone updated on how that goes!
