Yes it seems highly concentrated, they are a business and need to earn to function...as a business owner, its understandable, I guess that's why the assessments are so rigorous (so I hear) students need to be able to keep up, some can some can't.

The difficulty comes when the commercial side fails to communicate with the training side as to what is feasible/sensible given the resources available.

So when a subject is blitzed full time by a contractor in a few weeks, it hardly allows time for the osmosis to work for the customer. Just why the CAA allows this, I simply don't know. Well perhaps I do......
