If I'm stuck on anything I will let you know - I promise not to abuse the offer. Will only pm when I'm...
I'm definitely planning to do Distance Learning to fit around my job. For doing the actual course I will most likely take some unpaid leave in the last stages/ brush up.
As a matter of interest. I live near Chester - what would be one of the most convenient distance ATPLs for me ? Doesn't have to be the BEST, just a good one that would be easy to get to for the 150h of classroom study, brush ups, etc. ???
At the moment I am "browsing" the OAA "First Impression, Second Edition" set of books, 2004 I think. I know loads of stuff is out of date, like the Air Law, but they were cheap
. I think learning to use the CRP-5, decode METAR, basic Comms lingo, etc. long way before starting the proper course can't do no harm, can it ?
