I went to visit UKFT just the other day and was very depressed by them.
Firstly they are not JAA compliant, there is no such thing. An FTO is either approved by the CAA (or whoever your local JAA authority is) or not. There is no halfway house.
Secondly, they were just dodgy, no other way to describe it. Felt like checking into a cheap motel with the receptionist watching TV at the same time.
I was very disapointed and had hoped to complete my JAA PPL with them. Fortunately there was another post on UKFT where Scrogs had a link to a list of approved JAA schools including the ones outside of the JAA area.
Muddy Boots!
