Had a phone call the other night, at least one person from the last group has passed the ATPL's. Unless of course I am wrong and FTC managed to get another group through, but I can't see it the way it was going. He phoned me last night requesting info on where I took my CPL/IR. I was out there doing a FI rating when he was just starting the ATPL.
It is a shame that they have gone the way they have, I was out there for the first ATPL course when Atlantic were involved, and had a great time. Yes the notes were crap but a few of us still got through.
