Question BF Lento Finland!

Does any one know anything about this company - Is the standard of training good, reputation etc.

Oh, and is €53,000 a good price for an intgrated atpl course as described on their site?

Cheers

Jussi

As I understand it they conduct a modular course in conjunction with a Norwegian company. Why don't you call them up and find out the details.
imo 53000 euros isn't bad for zero to fATPL with all training completed in europe.

Hi,

I think they only are a RTF, and that should mean that they are onl able to give you PPL flight training. The frozen ATPL they have is some kind of theory training only, I think!

Anyway, in the last couple of years they have been giving flight training for PPL only. But, check it up with the school. Most students in Finland if they go for flight training on ATPL/CPL level goes for Pilot Factory (they have changed name to Patria Flight Training I think!!!!).

Good Luck!

Hey Vertalot,

'most students'???? aren't you forgetting two other FTO's in Finland each training just as many if not more students than Patria. Not to mention that they are often airline sponsored courses aswell.

check out these schools:
