Thanks Keeflyer.
All fair points, I am active in the industry already and have had discussions with recruitment guys at the airline I work for. They've said that they do not select based on the school, (ATPL ground), so will base my decision on the quality of the material/the course layout/the quality of the instructors. I know Bristol tick a couple of the boxes there...
I'd suggest having a look at the website, but I think the layout (with 4 rather thant 2/3 sittings) could work in my favour... Just simply as I have probably one of the busiest summers I've ever had working and despite knowing my job pretty well, I think I'm likely to be tested....
The jury is still out and will make my decision in the next few days, but any further comments are encouraged.
I am keen to pursue smaller class size and as much flexibility as possible though, just given my own circumstances.
Cheers all, look forward to a few more opinions!
