What they're probably hoping for is people to start rushing there to get PPL qualified with them before the deadline, in the hope of being considered for the scholarship, by which time they'll have sold a ton of PPL's...very clever
Agreed 100%.

I don't like posting on Pprune but if it saves a newbie from pain then it will be worth it:

Guess what, the two "lucky" candidates will then be told they are unemployable without a Flight Instructor Rating.

Luckily I am sure the school is willing to let them pay for this after they have been so lucky to be "selected" for " CPL sponsorship" (after paying for a PPL course).

I wish I was being cynical but I fear that this is the truth of the matter.

To be fair, great marketing but: "Buyer beware"

Newbies take note: good marketing does not a good school make

I will leave it there for now, but hopefully you get my gist
