Part way through and the school goes bust
Can someone explain what happens if I'm part way through an approved course for JAA Frozen ATPL and the school goes bust. How hard is it to transfer the parts of the approved course I've completed across to the new school?

Depends where you did the first part - and where you want to finish it off.
No easy answer. Tell us more - if you want specific answers you have to ask specific questions.

Are you concerned for a reason or is this just a curious question. Would be suprised to hear that an integrated school was going down the swanney.
Still, stranger things have happened on a dark night when the devil sets fire to your arse.

Thanks all, I have a mate who is with an Italian flight school that has gone bust just after doing his exams and partway (40ish hours) through flying. He was starting from scratch. The new school that took them all on seem to be a little slow at getting them up and running with the remainder of their course but is happy for them to get "miscellaneous dual" in the meantime. My Italian isn't so hot so I thought I'd throw the question up here.

PP,
not saying that it wouldn't happen, but with the current climate, it would suprise me if one of the uk/spanish schools went the way of the dodo.
history, however, does have a habit of repeating itself

SFT
SFT - Need i say anymore. (PilotAssist i think as well?)
I know many people who lost thousands to SFT! I won't get into heated debate on them, as it's all to easy to do.
Flight Training is sporadic. Any company can be here today, gone tomorrow regardless of the economic situation.

Integratred training transfer needs CAA approval. Transfer of hours towards modular groundschool if that is started but not complete would likewise need CAA approval. I would expect it to be automatic in both cases if the school had gone under, as it was for those I taught at SFT's groundschool who then finished off some with the help of our instructors and took the rest elsewhere. The CAA were as flexible as they could be - I even had delegated authority to finish one guy off in my subject "training as required".
Course notes must go with the student for modular flying courses, but we have had people complete CPL courses here who started elsewhere.
