SK8erboi,
When were you there? I was there from Jan 03 to Aug 03.
As far as I am aware, I was never taught by anyone who I knew not to be qualified. Remember the only requirement (as far as I am aware anyway!) to teach ATPL groundschool is to have passed the ATPL's yourself and be approved by the FTO or have special approval from the CAA based on previous career experience and again be approved by the FTO. Can you give me a clue as to who the individual was and I may be able to shed some light on it. PM me if you like.
On the whole, as you say, for the £ I was happy with course, espcially when issued with the new notes!
Cheers
LOB
