I have had plenty of dealings with CATS in the past couple of years and continue to do so. In my opinion they are very good. The study guides were originally a similar format to 4FORCES and also Cabair, but they have been totally re-written and are also now in full colour. Im sorry to hear that "kicking" had a bad experience with his brush up course but I know for a
FACT CATS has the best pass rates in the country (ATPL, CPL and IR theory). Also any of the students who have done the full course (especially those who go in for the morning lectures) with CATS will, im sure, have nothing bad to say about the quality of training, study guides or Stuarts determination to get all the students through.
CATS has absolutly nothing to do with 4FORCES they went bankrupt years ago, and on that point "dillydally" is correct in saying that Stuart took on a large number of 4FORCES students and got all but 2 through (these 2 are currently restarting soon Im told.)
However "Dillydally" CATS ATPL course runs for 9 months not 6 or 3! so I can tell that you dont work for them! It sounds to me that you failed at Bristol and are a bit sour grapes. Walter Mitty anyone???
Bristol have an extremely good reputation and Im not going to dispute it, but CATS is an excellent school and definetly worth a look if nothing else.
4Forces ones? Notes which have become a true legend in the UK training industry
Thats one word for them
Hope that answers a few questions
