englishal - That's an interesting link. This Angel City outfit wouldn't have anything to do with that well-known organisation UKFT, would it?

UKFT, readers might remember, purported to provide a 'JAR compliant' PPL (no such thing) and even to provide training to the JAA 'frozen' ATPL. Closer reading revealed that they were, in fact, offering FAA licences and ratings that could later be 'converted' to JAA by their UK based 'training partners' - in fact, nothing more than you could get at any US flight school at a lower price.

Now we have Angel City Flyers offering the same deal, based at the same airport, using the same UK 'training partners'. What a strange combination of coincidences!
