Thanks Turbine King
It's a lot of fun - especially flying in a new country.
I should be back in the UK around Xmas, or Jan '08. I will make a point to visit CATS, to see whats been happening at the school. Sounds like a lots been going on since I left. Would really like to see the on-line course in detail. It looks like really good value and seems to be getting good reviews.
I'll be sure to look you up when I'm over next time. Good luck with your next stage. Judging from your previous mail, you've probably done well on your last set of exams. Do let us know how you got on.
All the best

CATS distance learning
Just noticed the CATS distance learning package costs £ 999
http://www.cranfieldaviation.com/uk/index.html
Anyone who's been through it care to comment on it ?
How come there's such a huge difference in prices from one FTO to another ?
regards,

It seems a good place with good pass rates. Also the structure is slightly different with it being broken into three stages followed by a one week revision course, instead of two stages followed by a two week revision course. To me, this is easier if you have to take time off work.

CATS online
The course is well-structured into three stages
With one or two difficult subjects per stage
The study guides are online
Just click on their demo for the first subject
So far i've done stage 1 and 2 with no real problems
the Question Bank is FREE and has extra questions in it which test your understanding as you do each topic
so i should be finishing this year after about 10 months study time including time off for exams
i've saved about £1000 if i pass my last stage o.k.
The school itself is in Cranfield, U.K.

What is the best way of learning for these exams, any tips anyone?????
Cause the study guides seem hard to sink in!
I dont want too just rely on questions like the ppl confuser or is this the best way.
Do CATS give you up to date questions in their banks as I have heard Bristol GS do?
Thanks

Hello.
No, nothing reserved yet, CATS sent me a list of places in Cranfield. I am planning on having a drive over in the next couple of weeks and seeing what the rooms / flats are like and maybe putting down a deposit.
Ideally would like to stay on site and not bother with the hassle of Landlords, broken boilers, commuting and utility bills! From what I gathered over the telephone with CATS on site accom. isnt available. Unless you know different?
Regards Jon.

Well done CATS
Just like to say a big thanks to Stuart Smith and his expert team.
Got my results for my last set of exams.
All passed with over 90%!
Online system is great. Those who doubt it must think twice.
Happy days!
