rah rah rah .... in addition to the questions i asked in my original post ....
*******************
* on average, how long does it take to complete an IR ?
* how many hours could one IR students expect to fly on a "normal" day ?
* for the duration of the IR course, how many different instructors could a "normal" student expect to fly with ?
* if one isnt able to "keep pace" with the schedule, what sort of remedial training could one expect at oxford ?
*******************
.... which have gone unanswered, i would like to add another one.
* with OATS being so quick to mention the stats on their APP students, but nothing about the other non-APP students who are training at oxford, is this a two tier system of training and support ?
the reason i ask this is the impression i get from Ride the Fire's post ...... "The ones who moan are the ones with little aptitude and who shouldn't be there in the first place" ..... so presumably its only the chuck yeager types who OATS want to train ? students who arent "ace of base" and may require a bit of extra attention or training are probably best advised to not go to OATS.
