A bit of factual accuracy wouldn't go amiss here:

But, out of about 20-30 who (IIRC) started in that Flyer group about 2 years ago,
I think there are around 6 or 7 of us that have finished so far
that is an astonishingly poor success rate and reflects the collective hassle involved.
The flyer group actually started in April last year: (14 months)
Ten completed the exams last year and of those ten, eight now have the JAA/IR.
That leaves two stragglers (I'm one of them- not long soon I hope)with all exams done, yet to complete flying training
The rest of the group (numbering about 10) are doing the exams at their own pace for varying reasons (work, financial,family) but all have well defined plans and a date for planned completion.Some are doing all exams bar one to allow starting the flying training stopwatch to be deferred till it fits in with plans. Others are doing CPL first.
8 out of ten equals 80% in one year : a bl**dy good success rate IMHO.
There will certainly be a noticeable upward blip in CAA IR registrations for this period.
