Exeter Aviation, operator of the Robin Flying Group, has been a Registered Training Facility since 2008.
It never sought to compete for ab-initio PPL training with ASW, who were doing a very adequate job in that field, but concentrated on more advanced training for its RFG members.
It is now in a position to be able to offer ex-ASW students continuity for their PPL training/associated ratings with ex-ASW instructors - immediately.
Airways Flight Training has always been the premier school at EGTE for on-going commercial training but has traditionally shown little enthusiasm for ab-initio PPL training.
Hopefully EA and AFT will now dovetail informally to provide the highest quality of training from ab-initio to CPL/IR at EGTE.
