Nobody eats in the airport cafe, it's expensive and crap. There is a Spanish restaurant next to the airport called avenge that does a three course Spanish lunch for €8 including drinks. You can also get a swipe card from FTE next door to use their restaurant which does a fixed all you can eat menu for €5. I usually eat there as the food as great and it's 20yards from the school.
Duration of any course is down to the performance of the student.
The fleet is slowly being upgraded and there are two new glass cockpit 172 due for delivery shortly. The sim is now fixed.
With reference to Roland's comment about communications, it's the students responsibility to hold a minimum of ICAO level 4 aviation English. It is not the responsibility of the school to train you in this. When you do the theory exams you do a comma exam as well, when we do practical training you are expected to apply this. If you don't speak good enough English to understand the radio and apply the comms procedures you learnt as part of your theory then expect to do additional training.
