They’ve got a new website, but don’t try venturing away from the homepage quite yet as none of the other pages work yet…

As I said on MSN, congratulations Dan!

Have my sixth lesson tomorrow, not looking forward really, I was awful last week, mind you I had a hangover, hope tomorrow is much better! We did meeting traffic and emergency stops last week, think its roundabouts tomorrow, got my Theory test on the 10th of next month, wish me luck!

Good luck with the theory, watch out for the pesky hazard perception! 😉

Any updates on anyone here who has been learning?

I passed this morning 😀 10 hours of lessons, less than 2 months after I turned 17, passed 1st time. On a bit of a high at the moment! Ah the airport visiting possiblities are endless….

Woohoo! Congrats Dan, the world is now a smaller place for you, and the distance between your house and STN, even smaller! 😀 I’m approaching my first anniversary! 😮

Excellent pics! I like this idea! 😀

Excellent report and even better photos! 🙂

Lufthansa can do day trips – unlike KLM. Can I suggest not booking direct with Lufthansa for your Frankfurt flights. I mentioned in another thread that Lufthansa recently had a seat sale with day returns for just £67 including inflight service. By the time I was ready to book up, I had missed it and Lufthansa were quoting more than £320 for the same ticket on just about any other day. Rather unusually, booking with ebookers.com was cheaper. They were (and in fact, still are) offering £77 return trips. And the outward trip is on the A300 at about 9.00am.

That’s strange, I’m yet to find fares like that from EDI with LH, Expedia were wanting £488…

EDIT: Ok, so I just found one for £103 from EDI for the 14th of December. 😉

Nice report and pics, especially the LH B744 at the gate, like the way it shows just how close you can get! Would like to get to FRA, if LH weren’t so expensive!

AH! 😮
