All fair questions when you are investing a large sum of capital. There answers will be politician like. Be prepared and do your homework. I am not pissing on your campfire here. if you are really serious about Oxford (or indeed any prolonged flight training in the current environment) then there are things you need to know. Don't fall for the glossy brochures, fancy simulators, uniforms and a fleet of aircraft with a nice paint job. It is your future and your money. Be firm. As already stated, they first and foremost are a business in need of investment in order to keep things solvent. It's a tall order for many FTOs currently.
