Bonus at Cranfield?

Before I commit to doing the CPL flying course with them, are there any horror stories that I should be aware of?

Thanks

I've done some training with them recently and know a few other people who have also.

Well managed, with an able and motivated team of instructors and support staff - very little to criticise.

Except for the fact that I don't think that most of the aeroplanes have been cleaned since about 1980, and they're all quite superficially tatty. That said, the actual mechanical stuff all seems to be fine - so I'm quite happy flying in their aeroplanes, I'd just not rent one if I wanted to impress anybody and it was a point that made me very cautious about going near them originally (although thankfully my concerns turned out to be unfounded.)

Thank you all.

This was exactly what I was expecting.
