2   WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE AIRCRAFT?

TOM: 
"My favourite Aircraft has to be the PA-28 G-BYSP failing that any one of the others on fleet!"

3 WHAT'S THE BEST THING ABOUT FLYING?

TOM: 
"Definitely the freedom it brings - being able to book an aircraft and go where you want"   

4. WHAT'S THE BEST THING ABOUT TAKE FLIGHT?

TOM: 
"Since joining Take Flight in 2011 I have enjoyed many fantastic fly-outs. One of the best moments was flying over the South of France coast on a hot summers day, enjoying the view and landing at Cannes-Mandelieu with all the private jets on the apron, all made possible by the friendly members who you can pair up with and flight share flight costs.  The other bonus has being able to book an aircraft when you want and being able to take family or friends away for the weekend. Definitely the best flying club in the UK!
