FTA

It's good that you visited, I've been down there myself, I quite liked the informal nature of the place and the fact that the classes are small.

Also, you do all your flying in the UK, so no moving around. Shoreham is also a beautiful town.

However, in terms of costs, once you add in living costs, the integrated Flight Deck programme isn't must cheaper than CTC, OAA or FTE.

I don't think FTA has quite the same close relationship with some airlines like say CTC, but some its graduates are clearly making their way into big airlines, and small ones, like Air Arran in Ireland.

So, it probably comes down to personal choice. FTA is still on my shortlist ... I need another visit there (and other places) to make final decision.
