That guy'll be me then. Sorry if I didn't make it entirely clear in my last post - I was in a bit of a rush 
Anyway, AFT are based up at Coventry Airport along with all the Atlantique Dakota's and stuff. From what I have heard it is a pretty reputable school.
They offer almost every rating and in particular run a scheme called PArt Sponsored Training Scheme (PASTS). If you get selected for this, they will train you from PPL standard up to frozen ATPL. The only thing they ask is that you pay for half the cost of the training which, as I mentioned in my other post, is about £20 000.
The selection process is similar to the British Airways cadet scheme with there being an initial application, followed by aptitude tests and then an interview.
Once selected to be on one of the four courses that run every year (max 8 students on each), the training takes two stages.
Stage 1 - (this is the bit YOU pay for) Hours building and twin and complex single type ratings. Running alongside this you can do the ATPL ground exams by either distance learning or full time.
Stage 2 - (the fun bit) They pay for this and you'll end up with a multi IR and CPL. Once completed, ta daaaa , you're finished and have a frozen ATPL.
Hope this has cleared things up for you, if you want any more information, feel free to email me

I don't suppose anybody (apart from Atlantic Flight Training) will be able to answer this, but here goes:
If you turn up with the £20,000 worth of training that you would have had to pay for anyway (or any part thereof), will they deduct that part/whole amount of the price?
