I hear that they are still struggling to recruit staff and that current staff are not happy about the relocation and some may not go. They have big aspirations and are renting a large building at Oxford. If they don't get the staff, how can they teach all the subjects? Is it just the kudos of Oxford they are after? You can cover all the cracks with as much paint as you like, but the cracks will still be there beneath the surface.
If I were looking to train in this industry, I wouldn't be parting with my money to a small set up (low student numbers and low staff numbers), when a much larger organisation with all the staff and facilities and with pedigree (proven results) is right next door and the cost works out about the same.

AA seem to be teaching more PPL than ATPL.
