And if you do go home, they won't even schedule you anymore because " we told you that you will be scheduled tomorrow so why did you go home"
You are describing exactly what has happened in Lleida since day 1 of operations in 2018. Students sitting around going each day to see if they'll fly. Constantly checking the schedule to see if their name is on it. Even some students fighting and trying to step on one another to get lessons before each other. Suddenly your instructor has quit. Eventually you get another .. but the schedule guy seems to have forgotten about you (he schedules students he likes). Eventually you get an instructor and a slot, you show up to fly but sorry the plane is now tech and it'll take 3 days to fix. Plane is good now? Hang on, we're in a cloud now .. no flying today. This has been happening there for 4 yrs. We also went about 4 months with no mep training (late 2018/early 19). Not a single lesson completed. One crashed and the other was tech. Not a single person ever finished or trained on the date they got told.
