Erm, XL, where did you get THAT little gem from?

The integrated course includes all landing fees, VAT etc. The only things that aren't in the course fees (due to the fact that they change so regularly) are the CAA exam fees, so 14 ATPL exam fees at about £60 a pop and you IR test fee.

I do wish people would get their facts straight before posting!

So, is Cabair "worth it"

I'd say personal preference.

The ground school at Cranfield is excellent. The CGI is great and has a good team around him.

The flying instructors are generally very good too.

There are issues occasionally with aircraft availability due to tech issues, but that will be the same with ANY flying school!

So is CCAT better than Oxford? Well, it's certainly a lot cheaper, and if it means you get to see a bit of your family then it seems to tick the boxes for you.

Before anyone flames me, I'm not saying it's the right place for EVERYONE!

But Gaz, if you can afford the outlay for the course, be it modular or integrated then I'd say go for it!
