Be aware that Griffith does not deliver any flying training at all. Flying training is all subcontracted out to some private company, who presumably will also have walk-in flying students not doing the Griffith program. Who has priority, and who gets what instructors? Who delivers CASA required ground theory subjects, specifically who delivers the ATPL (which is where many smaller flying schools come badly unstuck).

It is also unclear who sets (or tries to set) training quality standards for Griffith students. Pat Murray's departure to U Southern Qld was a great gain to USQ, and a great loss of training expertise to GU.

With the uncertainties bubbling away and not explained on the GU website, and no clear academic staff list apparent, I advise all prospective flying students to look around at other options....

Good luck
