Desert Strip Basher
Sorry but your talking absolute b******k's. I had first hand experience that FAB/ACG had the most advanced avionics I had witnessed. All aircraft had been upgraded to garmin GPS, mode S, VOR/ILS. Also most no equity groups had their own aircraft (possibly with the exception of Blackpool group) so availability was fantastic. Neither did the group/company make any priority over lessons to group members. Sorry but I never saw any hint of a scam. Maybe you hold a grudge? FAB are (IMO) the UK's answer to training instead of going to the USA.
