The MPL is £26000 cheaper than the ATPL easyJet route at OAA.
Ezy MPL - £100,500
Ezy ATPL - £126,000
For pretty much the same outcome (easyJet A320 right hand seat), I think the ATPL course is rather poor value.
Yes you get an ATPL ... but it's a frozen ATPL, it still has to be converted to an ATPL. The exact same way an MPL must be converted.
£26,000 is cash I'd rather have in my pocket than their's.
