I went in October 2010 to revailidate my license.... I also went to OBA in 2006 to do my PPL/night rating/hour building.

Both times I went, I had a fantastic time, and achived everything I set out to do. The main thing to remember is that it is NOT a holiday (even though +28°, warm beaches and gin clear skys most days is heaven for most brits!) but a working trip that requires a lot of effort & dedication.

The instructors & staff are very professional & friendly, and will help you out whenever they can, but no one will spoon feed you and force you to study or carry out your preflight planning, which is where some people fell down. Overall I would highly reccomend them, and hope to return in the future at some point.

Have fun, work hard, enjoy a few beers and a BBQ after a great days flying and you won't have a problem. Some of the best times I have ever had ...

Oh, and the golf club on the airport does great lunches!

If anyone wants a chat, drop me a PM with your phone number & I will be more than happy to answer any questions you have.
