OK, that's fine WWW. However, I strongly suggest you take note of your own advice in future before you state rumours in a manner that infers they are fact - that is "....you'd have to check with the school directly for a definitive answer."
The "old flight standards guy" you speak off left WMU in late 1999, so I would suggest that information from him about the place is suspect to say the least. Far better to make sure information you are about to post about schools is up to date by maybe visiting their website? Addresses of these are forever being posted here, so no excuses really old chap!
My main point is that by posting incorrect information such as that in this thread, you may be directly responsible for the loss of potential customers who believe you - and I really don't think you would want to head down that road with all the possible consequences.
