I forgot to mention the brush up courses are quite good and full of good advice. With hindsight many mentioned that it would be a good idea to do the course 6 weeks prior to exams rather than 2 weeks but that is subjective.I did and it allowed time to go through the BGS QB and OAA course feedback with a bit more knowhow which was missing prior to the course but I was also starting to forget some info from the course so good note taking is important. The brush up courses are quite enjoyable and nothing to worry about,I was sorry when phase 2 ended as that was the end of my time at OAA. PM me if need any more info.
Happyfran....thanks for clearing that little matter up.Flight crew are well trained and skilled in the execution of emergency procedures as well as the years of routine operations and obviously deserve remuneration that reflects that....it just surprised me the level of the license examinations.
