Thanks in advance.

Planks only.

The equivalent cost for a 'frozen' ATPL(H) would probably be at least double the cost of a 'frozen' ATPL(A). (For example, the cost of the IR(H) alone is nearly the same as the whole 'frozen' ATPL(A)!)

They have been for years, Ned. The Weetabix scholarship was first awarded in 2004, and that obviously doesn't include the hundreds of GAPAN members who come from rotary backgrounds.
