The ssment of competence that was done in Hungary was just a short flight along the lines of a PC with no lesson assessed at all.
I had to teach all T & L theory, and about 7 hrs instructor training.
in my professional opinion I would strongly advise anyone considering a FIC to avoid this school at all costs. Unofficially, the CAA are of the same opinion.
Always good to get a factual insight. Many thanks for sharing that experience.
