    Moggy is correct (as usual)

    Michael, I would suggest holding off from flying FS2004 for the 1st part of your training, FS2004 will teach you to automatically have your eyes in the cockpit, something that you cannot take into real world VFR flying, once you start that bad habit it is hard to shake, and one that you do not want in the early stages of a PPL.
    What I would try in FS2004 when you progress to navigation is when you have been on a real world Nav Ex try flying the exact flight in FSim with the winds set etc, you will find that you will arrive at your destination perfectly (if flown correctly obviously) as you did in real world, that makes it alot of fun

    But is that £104 the solo rate or instructor rate? I assume the £120 is the instructor rate for a trial lesson, and probably rising £10-£20 once they have you on board for the PPL, and it may be on a C152 or a Katana, or something which is relatively fuel efficient 🙂

    This needs to be in GA forum but as I can’t move it you are looking at about £130 – £150 for an hour with an instructor, trial lessons can be less than this but you pay for the time used pro rata

    I agree with Steve that some of it is people imagining things but the reality is, there has to be something in it.
    Take the house we used to live in, we never ever saw anything (aprt from me & my brother’s imaginary friend) but always heard it, mum had a dream of that woman who a girl saw years later, exactly the same woman.

    Barrythemod, looking at that picture reminded me, my mother in law used to run a Christian youth group, I used to pick my girlfriend (now wife) up from there every sunday night about 8:30pm, well before I met her one of the group was killed in a motorbike accident, outside the building is the grounds to the chapel, they decided to plant a tree in memory of him, they all gathered and had their photo taken by the tree as a group, when it was developed this guy who died is staring out the top window where they hold the group, and it is him, you can even make out his moustache, they have had the picture verified by experts and they can’t determine or give an explanation as to what else it could be, when you see it it really freaks you out I can tell you.

    I play cricket, and the team I used to play for was my village team, the captain was a hard working sincere chap who lived in a very old farmhouse 2 miles outside the village, my uncle also owns a farm “across the fields” from his place, well he came to cricket and he wasn’t saying much (which is unusual), and he looked a kind of white, I said “Rog you okay today?” he said “yeah I’m fine, but hey do you….? naa forget it, people will think I’m stupid” I said what was up? he said well, he said did I believe in ghosts, I said hell yes, he then started to say that well he never and that whenever anyone used to tell stories he used to dismiss them as a load of old tosh, but he said he was led in bed the night before when he awoke, and at the bottom of his bed was a Roundhead, stood there in all his glory looking at him, he closed his eyes, opened them again and he was still there, so he closed them again, rubbed them, opened them and he was still there, he said he poked his foot out the bottom of the bed and waved it through him, he was still there, he turned round, woke up his wife Sam and told her to look at the end of the bed, when she did there was nothing there, she thought he was mad. This ties in with my uncle, there is a stream flowing in one of his fields, the same one that goes past my back garden, and he has often found swords, bits of clothning, coins etc from the 1600’s, and again on the outskirts of the village there was a war between the roundheads & cavaliers so it strikes home that what he was saying was the truth.
