notice
Considering your disgraceful manners and pointless foul language I should really ignore your post. However you have emphasised the confusion caused by a new entry into the Bournemouth FTO scene and the expansion of two others, so I shall attempt to clarify what each FTO does. I will try to make the post purely factual so as not to fall foul of advertising rules, but I know more about BCFT simply because I work for them, and I cannot guarantee accuracy of most of this information - ask the schools themselves.
Bournemouth Commercial Flight Training Centre
Owned by Bournemouth Flying Club Ltd.
Bought most assets of SFT, groundschool instructors all ex-SFT,
no SFT management involvement
Full-time/evening PPL groundschool
Full-time ATPL groundschool from June (distance learning - soon!)
Groundschool brush-ups/tuition as required
PPL
IMC/Multi/night ratings & all normal club flying
CPL
IR
FIR
FIC/IRI - basically any flight instructor rating, as the CFI is highly qualified to teach instructors
ETA/GTS/STS
Separate, co-operating small companies
No involvement from PPSC senior management
Groundschool brush-ups/tuition
Possibly ATPL distance learning now or future
Simulator training (I think on a PA-44 Seminole, purchased from SFT)
FIR/FIC/IRI - various instructor ratings, again well-qualified instructor instructors!
Possibly CPL and IR - check with ETA
Professional Air Training (forgive me if I have the name wrong - Proflight callsigns
)
Little change to this one
As far as I know just
CPL
IR
Night/multi?
Cabair
This does involve Colin Green, ex-MD SFT. However I assume he is just an employee of Cabair, not a director.
