I read this thread this morning before doing the cow cocky thing and going to the fielddays in Hamilton. The Polytech had a stall there and was curious to see what they had to say for themselves. Actually he couldnt tell me a hell of alot. i.e. Do you get a license after spending a heap of dosh? "Ummm..I'm not sure". There is no way in hell I am going to spend all that money and not even get a damn license. He wasnt sure how much of the time you get will be in the simulator. He didnt know where students will be doing their flying, but " It was designed for pilots by pilots" Oh...Excellent I am sold. Where can I sign up.

It seems not many people at the polytech know anything about the course but I have a friend who is starting a job with the polytech in a few weeks. They will be able to expand on it a little more.

If I was considering this course I would hold off for a year or so and see what develops.

Be very careful.
