Just to clarify a few facts, the scholarship places are funded out of our own cash flow following thirteen successful years of professional pilot training. The scholarships have provided us with an excellent selection of future instructors and line pilots, so even if the pilot is not successful this time around there's always next year to apply.
GMaverick, I'm sure last year's scholarship winners would be more than happy to talk to you about their progress, however it's your call where you decide to do your training in the end.
