Flying academy

Hello, as a former student from FA Brno I can say that you did the biggest mistake to join this academy. The academy does not treat you like a student and you will not learn anything from your ATPL properly and with quality to pass the exams due to lack of adequate presentations. Normally according to regulations of EASA for the ATPL preparation is 6 months of 5 days per week in a row. Flying academy has an agreement with the CZ CAA to prepare you within 20 days of "distance training" for all 14 subjects. The preparation is very poor for ATPL theory and the ground instructors skip the most important information which the student MUST know. Therefore after ground classes you must go home and hit your head in order to understand what you are studying, the meaning of the question or the subjects and to find the answer, such as mathematical subjects. For example, general navigation, flight planning and so on. Many new students are getting into the trap as I got due to their aggressive advertisement on network and cheaper prices to attract international students. The point is you have to understand what you are studying with the proper help of the instructors which you wont have in FA. Don't look price when it concerns your proper knowledge and training. In other words Flying Academy gives cheap prices, poor preparation and understanding, and if you have doubts for anything you must pay extra hours for private lessons in class. You are on your own pal. Good luck.
