Statistics and damn lies. I actually got my school to remove my name from their "success" list on the basis that they had diddly squat involvement in me getting my job. When I look at their "Where are they now" list the majority are either FR or what I would call niche operators. In order to get into the latter category they all had inside contacts either from working on the ground or knowing someone. Many had jobs lined up on successful completion of the course. Bear in mind this was back in 2006/07 when the so called boom was roaring away.
Others were converting from overseas licences with thousands of hours so again skewing the figures as they aren't exactly a true wannabe.
But never let the truth get in the way of a good bit of marketing spin.
