@ford cortina: The whole program cost £42,000 with an FI rating and job guarantee as FI (if you are good enough ofc. to pass the FI course before the official exam). As for DA-42 (or Piper Seneca III (tecnam at some other schools) whichever you prefer) time its more like 3+ extra hours in Poland for £1000, 1 hour cost 1500 PLN.
Thanks, as for the groundschool its learning by Bristol with help from Aviation Exam and other question banks. Then you choose when you want to take the exams you just need to do all 14 in 6 sessions (1 session is 9 exam days and 2 weeks of time). So its the difference between integrated and modular that you have to learn the theory (except for theory needed for practical flying that is being taught and examined very well at the school) working mostly on your own. But thats definitely worth £58,000 cheaper price. All the flight training is just as if it was integrated and you get FI + MCC/JOC as bonus (not all integrated courses got MCC/JOC included, either way I still want to spend extra on VA APS MCC since I believe its the most important part for the airlines and not how you learned the basic stuff). And you can actually finish quicker than the integrated course it all depends on how fast you manage to learn and pass the ATPL theory exams.
