Bournemouth IR pass rates

FYI - all flying schools will tell you that most students achieve a first time pass art their IR.

I was told that by EPTA/Cabair Bournemouth. And then I got there and got a partial. The previous 2 students got partials while I was there. And I now hear that the 2 after me got partials too. Meanwhile I hear that 70% of students at PAT are getting first time passes. Something doesn't add up....

The other thing to tell you about EPTA is that there is absolutely no careers support after you leave. Oxford provide it - why cant Cabair?

And finally, I just heard that a mate of mine landed was told he could commute there in his own (share of a) plane, and would get the £10 Cabair landing rate.... and then he got charged at £36/landing, and EPTA now deny all knowledge after he finished making all his landings/practise approaches...

My advice - steer clear of EPTA.
