The current syndicate of 15 has operated successfully with a single aeroplane for almost twenty years, and is now expanding with more shares on offer, broadening its offering and further improving aircraft availability. Members can choose between cheap flying in the Ikarus (which in the last two years has flown to Scotland, East Anglia, Sandown and the south coast) or a little more sophisticated flying in the glass-cockpit environment of the Skyleader.
