I just finished a course there a few weeks ago. Just make sure you don’t get this old instructor named Jim, he is a frustrated pilot and an ASS. He smokes all day long and acts like he is the best pilot in the world. He has obviously not looked at JAR-OPS in a while because his figures were always off. His de-briefs include no useful information and his overall teaching skills are very lacking. I am not the only person who thinks this man is a jerk, just ask around. Someone should just tell him to retire.

There are two instructors named Simon, both EXCELLENT. If you have a choice, choose either of them. The chief instructor, Pete G. is a gentleman and easy to talk to. The place is relatively well run but there is a constant smell of cigarette smoke around the whole facility and the bathrooms are filthy. Bring your own towel to dry your hands, or just air dry them.

Message me if you need any other info.
