Received my CPL/IR from Gatwick yesterday.
PAT provided all the training for my foreign license conversion and were excellent in all respects. Everyone from instructor, to ops, is really professional and focused on getting you through.
Despite the fact that the operation runs like a well oiled machine, they manage to retain the personal touch, and are flexible where required.
With the benefit of hindsight, I could have saved myself a fair bit of cash by really learning all the memory items on the checklist before starting the course, this was suggested, but not really stressed. Practising the instrument stuff, and relevant approaches, at home on a flightsim would also have paid dividends - the aircraft is not the most economical place to learn stuff you could perfect elsewhere!
