IR at NFC Weston

I was just wondering if there was anyone out there who has successfully completed the MEIR at The National Flight Centre in Weston.

I heard that the have a new sim and do the majority of their training in this but because of the lack of navaids at the airfield all the flying is done at Waterford 45mins at 400 euro per hour before your lesson starts. Can anyone confirm this and if it is the case is any of your training completed on the trip to Waterford or is it just a waste. Also how many of the 15 hours must be done in Waterford?

How many instructors were available to teach the IR and were they full time?

Did you have any problems getting an examiner, how long after your training was completed were you examined.

How much did you go over, what was your total costs

Finally will I have any issues if all my licenses are CAA and my MEIR add on is IAA issued.

I would really appreciate any information that anybody has regarding the IR at NFC or even suggestions about where else should I consider, finance is limited!!!

Thanks
