Thanks for the replies lads.
Anyone else can expand on this further?

I got a prompt reply from them, Vicky Buxton works there, CAA examiner. They're doing the ATPL exams for 2,500GBP.
Also quote "We are getting an FNPTII simulator in a few months, which will mean that the only part which has to be done in the UK is the IR 15 hrs and test."
Dont know about a lovely 15-hr IR with tea and biccies but seems like they've most things wrapped up. They're revising their costs ATM but say work on 30,000GBP zero to frozen. Sending me a spreadsheet with the individual items so I can deduct my PPL and so forth from the cost. I'll post the PPL to ATPL price when I get it...

Cheers for the advice - I'll be asking about accomodation. And judging by the amount of people that have been burned by handing over the full amount up front, I'll always and forever be wary of giving training orgs money for more than what I've just done - but a timely reminder nonetheless, which can't be overstated.
