Okay ex BCFT IR student....
First Time Pass on IR as well, on the dreaded Exeter route (those who have done it, know what I mean). Now drive a 737-800 in Africa and having great time.
BCFT's planes are old, so what? you want nice and new shinny go and fly a twinstar, no use for sim checks in classics though.
Instructors, well when I was there, One flew for FRA, One flew Dash 8's, John flew that nice Boeing 747SP Private jet, he is EX BA and IMHO one of the best instructors I have ever flown with. No idea about PAT, told they are very good. BUT BCFT is a very good organization. Young man, you should be very careful, what you have written appears to be libelous and if not careful Lance might come and visit you. Oh and Lance, great instructor, shouted a lot though, but really knows his stuff.
