Send Clowns,
Welcome to the land of the unemployed. As a much more experienced hand than you in more ways than one (how about twenty six years continuous professional flying and ten years at PPSC?) may I offer you some sound advice?
Keep quiet, head down, don't get involved in too many discussions free to the world wide web (as opposed to "www" whom only we know about).
Incidentally, my e-mail history and telephone calls would completely refute all that you have said about PPSC. You are quite right in that your courses and ours were structured differently........after all, we had been in the game for a lot longer.
To all those caught up in this may I offer my sincere condolences.
The south coast? - WATCH THIS SPACE!
