Morning all

I am interested in doing an FI(R) rating this summer, but currently work in a full time (non-flying) job Mon-Fri. Does anyone know of an school that does the course that could be tailored around a flexible schedule? I was thinking maybe around the weekend, including Friday and Monday/Tuesday.

I know schools tend to like to run these courses in pairs, so is anyone looking to do a course this summer, flexible start date, that needs similar flexibility?

Thanks for your help

High-flyer,

I did my FIC with On Track (http://www.ontrackaviation.com/). Since all their instructors are part-time, and some of them have regular day-jobs Mon-Fri, they will certainly be happy to fit you in at weekends - that's exactly what I did for most of the course. They also don't necessarilly pair people off - if you happen to be there at the same time as someone else they'll pair you off for some mutual, but otherwise it doesn't matter. I thought the instruction I got there was excellent - highly recommended.
