I flew there in September 2011 hour building. As an hours builder I was made to feel that I was getting in the way. It was 5 days before I flew as instructors were either late/ failed to turn up and all the aircraft (152) were unserviceable.

Un-serviceability was the theme for the month I was there. As an hours builder the 152 were at the bottom of the pile to be fixed. The "0 to Hero" students aircraft were priority.

When I left the deposit was not returned to me. It took 2 months to get it back. After another month I found $500 had been removed from my bank. The school had failed to pay the hotel for a large number of students and the hotel had billed me. This money is yet to be recoved.

If you do go, be sure to go to "The Wing House"..
