    To enable us to operate as efficiently as possible, we have chosen Alpine Provence for it's outstandingly consistent flight training weather. Statistics from a survey at Bracknell Weather Centre say that the probability of weather suitable for student pilot training throughout the year in the south of France is 83%, compared to Southern England which is 53%. These figures speak for themselves.
