Emabarrasing ? No !
I agree that maybe courses we dont run currently shouldnt be advertised or maybe it should be stated that we are awaiting approval .This is a managment decision and they have their reasons for doing it . Any enquiry to the school they will be told we are waiting for approvals . You have lost nothing and are then free to pursue other avenues .
That said we are not the only provider who you can go to to train in these disciplines . If you are holding out there must be some reason for it , Bob S you surely havent been waiting 18 months for an FI course have you .
Anyone connected with flying and who has had any dealings with the CAA should know that they dont do anything in a hurry and you cannot get a date for completion for anything Blood and stone comes to mind.
Manuals get submitted to the CAA for approvals ,when people phone up to enquire all the staff can say is , we are awaiting approval .
FAB is a relatively new schoool and is progressing well and buidling up the approvals as we go . From small acorns and all that .
Just come and have a coffee with us and we can explain all the plans show you round and see what you think .
We are new and learning some things as we go, but there is a lot of experience and know how there and we will get there please dont hold early issues against us .
Cheers
