Bishop84 - You seem to be raising a worrying situation over in the states which in fact seems to contradict the messages that OAT convey to those wishing to join the APP scheme.
I was under the impression that OAT offer a pretty good customer service facility for concerns such as those you are experiencing.
Do you mind me asking - have you personally paid for your flying training or have the costs been met by other means (i.e. sponsorship / parents?)
Also - how old are you?
