AP313 - 23rd April 2010

[themidge]

Most of the other guys in the group are sorted as far as I know. I'll be at Eynsham Hall which is about 10 miles away from the airport. Are you on facebook? There are eight of the other guys on a group called AP313.

By the looks of your other posts you are still looking at accommodation options. Let us know how it goes, wish I could help you out.

Eynsham is 7 miles West.

Hello everyone!

I'm also on AP313. Not long now!

My name is Natalie. I'm 22 and from London. I graduated last year from university. I got my PPL the October before last after a lengthy battle with the weather!

I love yorkshires! You should definately bring some down south Matt!

I'm staying in the on site accomodation too.

Look forward to meeting you all soon!

Hey James, I know, it's come up a lot sooner than I thought it would! Yeah I've just been working at a local garden centre to save up a bit of money. I studied history - a bit unrelated but a good topic for the cockpit! Did you go to uni?

Hi Nat,

Welcome to the course. I'll see what I can do about the yorkshire puds. Congrats on getting the PPL, that must have been fun. What got you interested in flying?

den285 - As far as I'm aware most of the people in AP313 have their accommodation sorted. I hope things work out with finding people to share with.

yea nat, i didnt kno what to do wen i finished school but wanted a degree and to go to uni...i did a general business degree with specialisation in accountancy. also unrelated to flying a plane but very useful to have all the same! i work for aer lingus, have doe for the last 4 yrs! really enjoy that but am looking forward to the position change....from ground staff to flight crew....hopefully!

[Nat]

Haha brilliant! We should have a sunday roast before we start on the monday I reckon! It was really fun yeah, especially flying over portsmouth and the steep turns! Well I've always been fascinated by planes and flight and just love being up in the air really!
Thats cool James, business and accounting is definatly usefull! Did you chat to the pilots that came through?

[ei-jfk]

yeah iv'e chatted to a few of them, and like myself they reckon the jobs scene will pick up again in a yr or 2...its not all doom..my mate got a job yesterday wit fly nikki..

6 weeks left till we start.....ur idea of a sunday roast day b4 we start is a cracking one nat...

[scoot43]

Hi guys!

Just booked myself onto the course but accomodation isn't going so well! Anyone staying at upper heyford who has a car?

Joe

[scoot43]

Hey mate hows it goin? Yeh im staying in heyford for 2 months and im gonna have my car with me for that time... are you booked in for the whole course then?

[Shezza86]

Hi mate,

I've paid my deposit, just gotta sort out my accomodation! If I book upper heyford, could I be so cheeky as to grab a lift into the airport with you? Hopefully I'll be able to get on site or somewhere nearer after a month or 2!

Cheers!

[scoot43]

thats what i did, im moving out of Heyford and into langford into on the 26th-ish of june... it's probably more comfy up in heyford having your own kitchen but i cant afford paying ridiculous amounts of car insurance for the sake of not having to share a kitchen with everyone...

Yeh no worries about getting a lift down to the school. You might have to send a bit of a contribution to petrol my way though
