Zone 220,
the program set by clark aviation is achievable, each course or batch as you call it still has 5 weeks buffer after groundschooling, that is why each was given a week or 2 off.
the aircraft's documents a re already on process and the latest i've heard was they will utitlise a cessna 172 for course 1 & 2 for their core flying.
From there i dont think there will be some delays. Maybe you should go and visit the school sometime and ask for yourself about all you queries, i believe they are transparent enough to give you info that you need to know.
