I attended the show and thought it was well worth the trip to LHR.
I am currently in the middle of deciding between the modular v's integrated route and it helped a lot to talk to the schools. I had always thought the integrated was best...but...having spoken to some of the schools the modular route appeals to me more now. Although I am no nearer a decision I do know which schools I would use for whichever route I take!
For what it is worth...I was particularly impressed with Bristol Ground school (good presentation of the manuals and good use of media) and Cranfield Flight Training (very friendly and helpful guys). I was of course impressed by the bling, key rings and stress buster toys of the other schools too, but that may not win me over!
Next stop for me a Class 1 and some school visiting.
