absolutley brilliant!

I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone. Finished there a few months ago and have no regrets. Instructors are very experienced and knowledgable but at the same time freindly and helpful. There feedback papers from past examinations are as good as anywhere and will leave you fully prepared (as much as you can be) with these dreaded exams!

Only complaint was that Coventry wasn't the most happening place to stay for six months.

Good luck!

ATA are a first class training school and Coventry is the ideal city for staying in your room to get on with some serious study!

On the basis of personal reccomendations and word of mouth and a personal visit by myself I am very impressed with the place.
I start there in two weeks with great anticipation , anyone else going there for february.

I recommend ATA. I went there in 2001 and passed them all first time. Instructors are good and really care. They go out of their way to get the good info to you. Your part of the bargain? You must put in the effort. Coventry is good for that because it's a tad err well... it's Coventry.
Note: the Old Mill is very good at relieving you of some cash if you have any spare. :D

I can't seem to escape Coventry, I now fly out of there a few times a week.

Must agree with everyone,

I went on word of mouth,and wasn't disappointed, finished there December , passed 11 of 14 first time , i was a bit disappointed with perf / p of f but talking to people who are there now , this has been sorted.

All the instructors know there stuff and are helpful and friendly.

Oh and not forgetting Pepper ATA's resident black lab dog , she certainly can brighten up those dull monday mornings whilst relieving you of your lunch at the same time.

Good luck 'Friday' you'll enjoy every minute of it !! ( the mill that is !!)

:D :D

As the only organisation qualified to teach the ATPL Theory course anywhere near the North-West of England i guess i have no choice but to attend their course beginning in Feb. The long distance courses are a nightmare when you get stuck with something so it will be lovely to have one of the most important aspects of flying taught properly (hopefully!!!)

See you there Friday :-)

You could always stay in the Stratford/Wellesbourne area. A lot nicer, more to do and still only a 20 minute drive away from Cov airport.
