I have spoken to two previous students there. One is happy still in the 12 months of work and the other didn't seem to over the moon about it stating a couple of people left during the course. Of course nothing is easy and people are gonna leave for various reasons. These may be personal differences, not coping or struggling with the content or just realising its not for them.
What we all have to remember is that success does NOT come easy. Speak to some successful pilots working for the big airlines, they all have stories about hardships while striving for their dream. A friend of mine is an f/o for a big airline and about to move to the left seat. He has some sorry tales of working some real crap jobs during the 90s while trying to get his hours up.
Part of the fee for this training company is an endorsement for an aircraft you'll be flying on your 1st 12 months. Unlikely you'll shift to the left seat at the end unless you prove to be the next Chuck Yeager
