As most of you, I am also doing the (Mid life crisis -as my wife tends to put it) career change. I am heading out to SA in Feb/March 2009 to do the rest of the flight training. I am busy with my ATPL studies here in the UK and plan to finish it before returning to SA (just for the fair wx flying). I have started the GS self study, but need to join an FTO... Any recomendations? CATS, Cabair Bournemouth, Oxford..... I am tending to lean towards Cabair, but have recently noticed quite a bit of negative feedback about them.
