Sheffield & ADX

Aeroscout, best of luck at Sheffield. A word of warning though, this school takes NO prisoners.You really have to absolutely get the ADX outta the way on the first week. Don't even think that they'll concentrate on it in class as I naively thought, as there was some areas (instrument flight) I had no idea of and figured they'd run over them or the course would make them clearer thus enabling me to understand them better. You will be overcome with the amount of stuff you have to learn for the schools exams and having to try memorise the 500 ADX exams while trying to work your way through the course is a recipe for disaster. I just can't emphasise this strongly enough. Otherwise you'll be in for a whole world of pain unless you have a photographic memory. Mere mortals struggle with Sheffield.
