When I went there was a chap from Germany who had spent all his money and as far as I know had done all but his cpl(a) skills test (he was going for atpl(a)) He flew from Germany to Gatwick just for a medical because there was a massive waiting list in Germany for one... Poor sod failed on eye exam, turned out he was slightly colour blind. A very distraught German flew home that night..... not nice
Yea thou its his own fault for not doing it before hand.

Knievel if you have your heart set on the CPL route like me and R44 and everyone else on here then get your ass down to gatwick, worth the hassel. IF you do have any problems it will sure as hell lie with your eyesight or hearing. My hearing wasn't 20/20 at the time but that was due to one ear needing a clean out!
