Anyone able to cast any light on this?
Im in a similar situation myself. Based in what recent starter's have told me; if the type rating is done at L3 Gatwick then a hotel will be provided, if it's done at Heathrow then there won't be. It's just a question of where the course is going to happen, which I'm sure you will find out in due course.
