Thanks for your reply. You're the only one to get back so I presume that no one else has flown there! I am a little sceptical of such a glowing report! I do believe that you have no financial gain in vouching for them but I am wary as it seems to happen from time to time on pprune, and I can't afford to take chances as I don't have a big amount of cash, so this is it, no second chances at a different school.

Yes, I have contacted Malcolm and he was very helpful but then again, I do think that if you're going to spend thousands on flying they should be helpful. Maybe I'm just picky.

Regards what I intend to do afterwards. Well, I have friends who fly in "bush" operations and I can honestly say that given worts and all, that is what I want to do for a living. A friend of mine works for Zimex and earns a good living out of flying in Africa. I kow that I am being "short sighted" so to speak, and that one day I'll probably need to get a more stable job in England to support a family and all that kind of crap, but I am content to earn less and have an adventure! Given the choice i'd choose flying a Porter in the outback 20 times over flying "pax" to and throw across the pond.

Thanks again, Pstar <img src="wink.gif" border="0">
